is it when news became 24/7 that it turned from news to tabloids?

Gotta create lots of filler in a 24 hour news cycle and nothing ups ratings like gossip. The old housewives have known that secret for a millennium.

speaking of "Old Housewives", anyone else sick as hell of hearing about the "Smart Cookies"? I listen to a lot of sports talk radio, and it now seems as a couple of times per hour I have to hear from some tramps who have decided to form a group because they were in debt? They have come up with such revelations as, "we now pay off our credit cards each month", ahhh dah.....
I actually listened to their whole commercial the first time it was on, I suppose I expected that (5) women sitting around bs'ing would somehow start to talk dirty to each other and start removing their clothing (The perverted side of me (I know Chris, "You thought you knew me") LOL. Anyway, now when I hear the stupid ads come on I immediately change the channel. I'm not the smartest guy on the planet, but when that happens the ads are not working and should immediately be pulled, not only that but the advertising company that dreamed up the whole stupid ass campaign should be immediatly FIRED!!
