you know (yes, i know you know), lots of "journalism" is such garbage. and local tv news is at the top of that list, right above most (increasingly de-skilled & concentrated / centralized) "local" city newspapers.
it is, however, good for a laugh once in awhile! gotta love youtube for this kind of thing...
oh my gosh did you catch the expression on the co-anchor's face on the second one? hilarious.

as for avoiding the vast array of media basura, may i suggest the following for generally high-quality writing (i mean, god, is it really so difficult?), relevant content, & useful analysis...
la jornada
página 12
electronic intifada (& sister intifadas)
the guardian
telesur
al-jazeera (english)
**
and may i also suggest you console yourself about the current state of journalism with a little silvio?
resúmen de noticias : silvio rodriguez
yo he preferido hablar de cosas imposibles
porque de lo posible se sabe demasiado...
ps: gracias to gg & j for informing me of the above excellent clips, jejeje.
