Non-Stories

Say what you will, but the news people deserve a lot of blame for the abysmal state of news. I'm watching tonight and all they are reporting are a series of non-stories.

1. Sotomayor's "wise Latina" remark. Are you effing kidding me with this already? The lady misspoke once, already retracted it, why in god's name is this what we're talking about? We should be talking about the issue of Sotomayor being a bad writer. This is not a flaw we want in a Supreme Court Justice. The Republicans, however, don't have a leg to stand on because their two most popular figures in the past 8 years - Bush and Palin - are not very high up on the old oral and verbal skills.

2. CIA's Secret Program to Kill Al Queda Leadership. Who on this planet didn't think the CIA was trying to assassinate Al Queda leaders starting on 9/12? What is the story here? If Congress is saying they were kept in the dark, they're a bunch of frigging morons. Of course the CIA was trying to kill Al Queda and hopefully still are. Jesus Christ what is wrong with these morons?

I stopped watching. This is like the Tara-Landry plot line in Friday Night Lights Season 2. A game-ender. How can I waste my time on this crap when there is Deadwood to be watched?
