Yes, I much prefer ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, Fox . . . two minutes of what is going on in the world, and once that bow in the direction of "news" is out of the way, we can get on with what Britney Spears is doing, why Oprah does or does not hate Dr. Phil, where you can get the best deal on an obscenely expensive condo in Florida, and then turn to our favorite shouting heads to have our views confirmed. Interrupted, every seven minutes, by those helpful commercials that NPR examines so carefully when it is not cluttering up the airwaves with boring, lengthy discussions of health care (lack of), Social Security (threats to), outrageous gerrymandering (by both parties), and a host of other items on the socialist agenda. Thank God they haven't asked me to be on, either.

ReplyDeleteHey, Willis, do what I do: Skip 'em all. It's mostly crap, NPR's being more pompous than the rest. I can't bear talk radio. Any of it.
