We may or may not be talking bout the same thing, but I've gotten fed up with what's considered "newsworthy" these days.
Case in point: A female monkey unable to get it's male companion to impregnate it goes into a depression, and mimics the humans smoking cigarettes who are watching it.
Said monkey mimics them, gathers a spent cigarette from the ground and pretends to smoke.
Somehow she gets a real one and gets it lit and really enjoys smoking. End.Interesting, but NOT NEWSWORTHY for CNN. There are more important things to report on.
My local NBC channel, NBC5, and a host of other NBC affiliated sites are just turning into the dregs of news reporting.
The popular way for them to present stories now is to use a slideshow format with some of the graniest, poor composition photos you've ever seen. They are often stills of video and just awful.
They just paste the report beneath, a few sentances on each slide.
I'm so sick of it.
