From the "KNBC Noon News Update" email I just received:
Lohan Confirms She's Dating Woman
Clay Aiken: 'Yes, I'm Gay'
A) These stories cannot possibly be considered "news" to anyone. At best, they are confirmation of long held assumptions. That's not NEWS.
B) It's six weeks before the next Presidential Election; the current lame-duck tries to further dismantle the Constitution as he attempts to "address" the Mortgage bank failure; battles over gay marriage and the California budget continue… and we get a pair of fluff pieces to lead off their email update? (And no, this was not the Entertainment email update, though both stories appear there as well.)
And the rest of the damn email is just as bad, with a headline about Lionel Richie's NEIGHBORS getting robbed, the latest from the OJ Simpson trial, and a FACEBOOK update. WTF?
