How difficult is it for you, really, to get past 'gee she's getting old, and those expressions', and to listen to the interview?
In a 24/7 news cycle existence, a weekly newsmagazine is relatively unnecessary, as is the national network evening news, too.
There's a large population of working people, not tuned into cable news, for whom the conciseness of a half hour of news is just right. And 3 relatively in depth interviews or feature stories over the course of an hour has certainly survived the test of time.
Ain't any flat screen TVs on those coal mine walls now is there?
