I feel the same way. He is a good man.
Can anyone tell me why the networks feel compelled to show a postage stamp-sized screen of the actual event, and a larger screen showing old, recycled footage that we have all seen a hundred times?
Do they think we'll click the remote if all they offer us is a talking head? They really do think we are f*cking idiots who need pictures and stupid, fake animation to keep us interested.
Yes, they really do think that. They've all been taught that if they leave up a static picture of a monotonal guy sitting at a table, people will tune out in droves. They don't even think about it; they just automatically make sure they have extra material ("b-roll," they call it) to run over and over, just to keep the picture on the screen active.
