I gave up on television (and its advertising/message pumping) 6 year ago (February 2008, when they fell all over themselves with Obamadoration).
I’ve seen a little bit of it here and there over the years (like the local news after a football game). Zero news content. 10 minutes on a traffic jam with 3 minutes on people sharing their food by the roadside and 5 minutes on a dog that wandered off. No report as to what CAUSED the traffic jam.
