It's a successful business model, but I don't have to like it.
What's also striking is the reminder that TV news is a mid- to late-twentieth century medium, for people whose media habits were formed back then. I mentioned to bedfull_o_books that I'm exposed to more prescription drug adverts in my few days here than I am in the whole of the rest of my life combined.
I'm not sure it's the TV that's given me a sour stomach and a headache, but it probably isn't helping.
