All or and Nothing


There has got to be a happy medium between the cable nets that ignore the passing of a popular movie actor and the net that goes wall-to-wall with uneducated speculation.

Ignore pop culture under the faux cloak of "taking the high road," and you fail miserably in your main task of covering the news. Flood the airwaves with unconfirmed gossip under the guise of "staying on top of it," and you become equally irrelevant.

There has got to be a better way.
