Thanks much for your response.

Also consider:
TV news producers tend to be 20-somethings still wet behind the ears; overworked, underpaid, pulling a lot of stories off the wire by cut and paste without time or energy for verification.

Then there is audience demographics, and Broadcast Television is falling apart IMO.

Finally:

"Journalism, a trade that vagrants and vagabonds pick up on their way to the poor house." Mark Twain

A well respected retired TV anchor and reporter I knew kept this quote on his desk to remind himself of what he was up against.
