I’m am still on vacation…
But I can always take a couple a minutes to talk about prime time television which I abhor.
Trump’s speech or address…was what I expected scattered, strange and full of blatant lies. More importantly, it added no new information to the conversation. Prime time television, (of course) broadcast it…for the same reason, it broadcast Megyn Kelly, Roseanne, Matt Lauer & company because it’s old school, based in discrimination and can’t think outside the box of traditional format.
As usual, they look like fools. But I’m sure they could pull it together if only streaming services would share their data with them.
Good news the only hot take I saw…so far was on Fox. It compared Nancy and Chuck to angry parents which is fair.
