What is considered news?

Hello all. I think having a blog is a great tool to voice your opinion about anything you think is worth writing about. I watch the CBS evening news every night and I was enraged to see that Tiger Woods had once again made the headlines. The evening news should consist of world issues or things that reflect the general population. Leave the celebrity gossip and their mishaps to Entertainment Tonight or TMZ. That's why we have certain shows or programs to cover certain topics and people.

  1. Hello Ms Roaringlioness,

    Yes, I agree about the news. All the news now seems to be owned by one big conglomerate. Since I assume the stations cater to what the public want to hear, God help us all. We have to let the media know what we want. I get almost all my news online now and certainly not from CBS. I do subscribe to Reuters online and sometimes access BBC. Mostly, I subscribe to various other news sources.
