I was struck by the realization that a channel doing 24-hour news should just be able to stream itself without needing to do anything special. (It makes sense for companies like CBS and ABC, which don't have full-time news channels, to cobble together streaming news.) If the news channels have twisted themselves into formats where personalities and debates are more important than following the actual news, there's no reason to think that their streaming services won't end up in exactly the same position. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TVorNotTV" group.
