“If I remember correctly, when CNN first came out (I was in High school), it was actually about the news :P”

I, too, remember when programs with the label of “news” was about current events. Now, even my local news is about five percent news of the day and national news. The rest is just one big infomercial along with Hollywood gossip and sensational trash. And they wonder why many people are just not watching.

I haven’t seen TV since about 2003, no idea about USA programming (seems to be a lot of cr@p, from what I’ve read here).

Dagnabit, what happened to the country we grew up in? And I am a young’un (born 1970 in west Texas.. went hunting daily)... I still cringe when I hear people saw something as simple as “butt” :p

Will we ever see the time again when people have morals?
