you're right that most of Americans did not recognize the connection. And that is my entire problem. I did not recognize the connection, but now that someone has pointed it out I'm kind of pissed. Would this story have made the air if Williams was not friends with Smilovitz? The answer is no. If you doubt that call the assingment desk of any local news station. "My son just produced a video about his grand parents." You'd have five seconds before you were hung up or transfered to the voice mail of a reporter who had the day off. |

You self righteous journalist do the same thing at your shops as well. And if you have not aired something that was not "news" regarding a friend or acquaintance then you don't have any "stroke" in your own newsroom. So therefore you are just complaining on this board because you have no "juice".
