I have the NHL Center Ice package and watched many games on CBC over the years. Not only are their PSAs graphic but their news is uncensored. People getting interviewed drop F-bombs left and right, bloody corpses when there's a terrorist attack. Our news is sanitized by comparison.

Naked News is the best!

It's really funny to me how news around the world is often much more uncensored, but at the same time our media is much more about the doom and gloom with the fluff piece thrown in to help us feel better.

It's about the entertainment aspect, the emotional rollercoaster.

If we're going that route, give me an Archie Bunker character, swilling scotch and chomping a stogie.

I suppose Limbaugh and Jones are close, but I'm sticking with my total mental image.

In all seriousness though, I still yearn for Walter Cronkite or John Chancellor.

True, it seems as if our news today is mostly Pathos, with a mild sprinkling of Ethos, perpetrating to be Logos.

It would seem Montana has some issues they need to deal with.
