Just heard the promo for the Nightly News with Brian Williams...

[Missy M]

and it had dramatic music while announcing they will be covering "Terror in the Sky" this week. I wasn't aware any terror in the sky occurred. All I want to hear from them is news. I don't want to hear made up 'drama'

[JeffR]

1. CNN's version the other day was "Liquid Terror"

eom

[htuttle]

5. "Liquid Terror"

Would that make a hellava name for a brand of Vodka, or what?

[JeffR]

6. Or a barbecue sauce!

[htuttle]

7. Or Tabasco!

Time to register that one!

[Ilsa]

12. Or as Mike Malloy said,

100 year old grandpa in a wheelchair with a Foley catheter bag full of urine. Yeah, now that's some terror!

[jayctravis]

10. But what about LIQUID JUSTICE?

[The_Casual_Observer]

2. I'm surprised they are covering that at all. The rest of the media

seem to be distancing themselves from it already.

[leveymg]

3. Sounds more menacing than, "Dry In the Sky"

They can show passengers staggering off airliners begging for water.

[otohara]

4. The Names They Come Up With

are not only all sounding the same on every damn network and cable channels, it's insulting to give a name to absolutely everything that now happens around the world.

Gawd I hate, hate, hate the media.

[pretzel4gore]

8. me too....

surely, there MUST be some way to make money off the undying, unending hatred for the pigmedia so evident among the people!
where's all the entrapennurs ie capitalists?

[Swamp Rat]

9. Infotainment

Brian Williams is an alien lizard.

[Philosoraptor]

14. Hellish imagery

appropriate

[spanone]

11. Have you seen the Katie Couric commercial?

She says she doesn't just want to give you the news, she wants to give you perspective on the news. Just give me the news Katie, thank you.

[Missy M]

13. The last thing I want is her perspective on the news.....

or any other newscasters perspective. I just want the news as it happened and I'll be happy. That is why I no longer listen to the news and read the newspapers and even then it can be one sided. I also like to get the news on DU.
