Anyhow, never mind the weather, whats the point of the news even. Usually they do a terrible job of covering an issue and by the time its on TV, its already old news. Guess they havent heard of this new thing called the internet! The news as a TV program is becoming more and more irrellevent.

I totally agree. Nothing irritates me more than watching the news and having them say "check out our website for more information...". Seriously, if I was near a computer I wouldn't be watching the news. Just tell me whats going on...that is the entire point of your show!
