is journalist who don't stand up and say enough is enough. Job security and a paycheck has done more harm to a profession that was once a "calling." Voices are muted except on this board, and then again, on this board it is anonymous...so the beat goes on and journalism will drown in its inability to police itself. |

Television news is just another profit center now -- taken over by the suits just as the health care industry was.
It's all about packaging the product now. It's hard to tell where the promotion ends and the news begins in any given item.
