re: #129 ORD neighbor

Which part of separating the making of news from reporting of news is too difficult to understand?

That’s the whole point: These networks have learned that they’re more popular when they’re part of the story.

Viewers don’t seem to be interested in the inert, neutral news anchor any more.

If Fox didn’t do stunts like this, their shareholders might complain that they weren’t doing everything possible to make Fox the subject of the news, hence raising their ratings.
