"All journalists are dicks" Wrong. The whole media is a bunch of dicks.[quote=Pfroggy1] They're like North Korean media, always making bold claims and biased stories that are laughable. [/quote] At least north korean journalists have standards [quote=So Boerd] In all serious, this thread is meant as a criticism of news networks feeling the need to devote 3 hours to repeating the same three minutes worth of news.Thoughts? [/quote] Look i know its bad and everything but the ABC news 24 station (In case you could not tell they are a 24 hour news service) has been non-stop talking about the Aircraft destroyed in Ukraine and just regurgitating information with minor updates every 2 hours or so. Yes i know thats its a important story and that it is indeed a 24 news channel but there are other things in the world to talk about, like i don't know the high of corn crops in China or something.
