Thu, 23 April 2009 It would appear that I'm on a roll today. Anyway . . . I've almost given up watching TV when the networks want me to watch. I'm a Hulu kinda girl. When the day comes, and it will be soon, that I give up my cable service, you'll hear about it right here. But tonight I thought I'd give NBC Nightly News a go, for sentimental reasons of course. Well, what do you get when you cross a media conglomerate's entertainment division with its news division? You get NBC's Nightly News with Brian Williams anchoring a newscast that slams a story about Jay Leno's absence from his nightly perch, on the same network, between a rather interesting story about an underwater national park and the passing of a World War II veteran. What Shameless Self Promotion. SSP, the acronym of choice of the greedy, self-obsessed or perhaps of a floundering, once great media organization trying to make its way across the ever-changing media delivery landscape--and not having a good go of it. Enough said. til next time, Sunny Category: Sunny's Almost Daily Commentary -- posted at: 10:21 PM Comments[0] |
