Agreed, agreed!  Even though you can now obtain a degree in Broadcast 
Journalism, from over 100 accredited Universities, I get so tired of the 
sophomoric tease, the adolescent 3 rhymes in descriptive analogy, and the 
ridiculous smile while reading about fifty people killed in a plane crash, 
or a Russian Theatre.
