Opinion, Survey or News?
For the past several months I’ve reduced my television viewing. Not because I don’t enjoy it. I did for the most part. It’s the news and weather that drives me away.
Televison has its good and bad sides. Because each local outlet is a carbon copy of the other it makes you wonder if they don’t all originate from the same source.
