If you need no other explanation of why network television is dead, kaplunk, kaputt, shot squarely in the ass, simply watch this clip. It's nothing but embarrassing, and that neither CBS or Andy Rooney seems to have the slightest clue that it might be just makes it all the worse:
And to think that in high school my history teacher insisted that we watch 60 Minutes every week....
Andy Rooney doesn't hear music as music, according to an old Imus interview. So he'd have no reason to pick up what's hot.
ReplyDeleteI haven't heard of anybody new since around 1970 just because the music sucks.
TV is dead because it's gone to lefty soap opera narratives.
The face of TV news, to my perception.
