Have you notice (The Dumbing down ) of news. We seem to get less detail, informed, world view type of news. Instead we seem to get entertained, gossip, laughs and pretty sets, yes some good reporting on Public tv channels. but the locals 4,5, 7, and 9 seem more and more geared toward playing into the mind set of what draws more people instead of giving needed news. Even the last debate played into this dumbing down.
Reporters, news anchors, may not have much say as to what is shown each night, most of the lead in stories have big teasers, follow by little contents. Some channels play too much to certain groups or politics, little coverage is given to countries that do not play into our thinking. I think we need to pay more attention to advancing views of countries like Bolivia, who's president has what I believe is pointing to a new type of world leadership for people, he states why do we over fuel feed luxury auto's, at the expense of not worrying about fueling the needs of human beings.
Our news need to open up its resources to the greater views of this world instead of spending too much time on things that play to a teenage type of gossip, over kill and waste, we need more real beef, life meaning, facts, whole world coverage without playing to the greed of waste money. We need to move to things in people lives, by meeting the reporting of things, most needed for life.

Born, raise in DC, Cardozo High 67. Some of my beliefs, there's too much violence. Murder is the most vicious act of all. We need to attack the worse crimes first to help cure the rest. All laws related to major crimes need to be reviewed and made clear for like crimes, all like crimes need similar punisment, regardless of wealth or race,using a three step senctencing manner, base on similar crimes, for major crimes, except murder. Murder would be 25 years or Life. I'm working to improved my website for early 08, please stay tune, and Cherish Life. PS. Please visit my updated site @ www.snitchonmurder.com
