Hannity and Colmes is just doing a rehash of the dimbulbs of last night, after doing something regarding Shiavo.

The CA fires are breaking news - whether or not one has family or friends there (I have both)

As a former radio reporter and knowing the importance of broadcast news because of it's immediacy, I am speechless over the lack of coverage.

I would know nothing if it weren't for FReepers.

I have been listening to KFI all afternoon and evening out of LA and they are covering the fires 24/7 which is where I am getting the info. This is real news not the crap they are showing on cable networks. I have zero respect for all the cable news networks. They need to drop the name "NEWS" from their titles.

I'm wondering what the point is of all-news channels if they don't want to carry the news...

I heard a stat on the radio today that the largest fire in San Diego is the size of the city of Chicago...the fires altogether that time were half the size of Rhode Island, and I'm sure it's grown by then. Yet instead of live coverage we get warmed-over stories on the cable news channels. At least Chs. 9 and 11 have improved their coverage now that it's no longer the Saturday night news wasteland :).
