For some unfathomable reason, I am a late-news junkey. When my favorite tv shows are into summer repeats, I find myself sitting in my comfy chair watching the 10 o'clock news and wondering whether anything good, happy, enlightening, gratifying, etc., has happened today, this week, this month, ths year?

I've never really understood the immense impact that the network newscasters seem to have, when their programs are airing when most of the "normal" world is probably sitting in traffic anxiously waiting to get home. I wish that these shows were on at 10pm or 11pm, as I'd feel much more entertained and informed.

When I came to TV, I was at first appalled at the lack of "national" or "international" news on the late programs. Now, I just assume that I'll find out all there is to know about murders, rapes, robberies, assaults, in the Orlando area!

I call it sad!
