Is it too much to ask to have continuous live coverage of WWIII? (IF that's what this turns into.) What good is a 24 hour news channel if it's a 24 hour OLD news?

One of the biggest disappointments in the history of American journalism is the utter failure that 24 hour news has turned out to be. So much potential to help citizens, and so little to show for it.

Rockets have now hit Nazareth, the farthest south they have hit. Bob Sellers on Fox speculates that these are longer-range missiles.
