    Don't forget the weather stories. The weather stories became more popular than ever in the past 5 yrs. They don't upset any powerful interest or advertisers. The weather stories serve to help crowd out those pesky substantive stories and investigations.https://twitter.com/cobra429jet/status/974121542773870592 …

    Problem is that almost leaves you with only human interest stories & train wrecks. Sometimes the bad guys win.

        Politics and religion have always been taboo subjects, and weather is a safe bet.

        The weather stories seem to imply that hurricanes, blizzards, floods, etc. are Much Worse now (!). Not much to back that up.

        I'm reminded of the classic quote from former New Orleans Mayor Vic Schiro (resplendent in rain coat and hat) on local TV before Hurricane Betsy hit in which he warned citizens, "Don't believe any false rumors unless you hear them from me." :-)

        Weather stories are an attempt to convince industrialized nations' taxpayers that a carbon tax is the right thing to do.

        But only weather stories with a little snow in the northeast, or really huge destructive storms elsewhere in the US.

        Try One America News Network. They cover about 4x the headlines in a 1 hour broadcast. Just the facts, as news should be.
