Ah, your anti-broadcast-television bias is fully visible.
TV news will be the last media standing. NEWSPAPERS are killing themselves
-- journalists wanting to be "facilitators". Go to www.poynter.com search
on the term "court holder" and you should see my posting.

TV news is killing itself. Probably because it is more focused on
entertainment and image than reporting.
I am not afraid of a future where news is reported by people who
actually witness it...

I AM afraid of news from people who manipulate it.
And then there is the opportunity to use the new technology to
compete effectively with the traditional media.
In response to the column linked above i got a message from someone
who is actively challenging the status quo.
