So, they're still broadcasting news programs, I see

I watched a couple of hours of election coverage tonight to see what some folks were making of the New Hampshire primary. It was an interesting experience. I have not watched any TV news to speak of, on any network, since the night Barack Obama was elected President. I basically get my news from the internet.

I keep up on what's happening, but whereas once I watched 1-2 hours of news every day, I just can't stand it any more. I get angry or depressed even thinking about it. Maybe once we've gotten rid of old Hope 'n' Change, I'll perk up and get interested again. But as it goes, I'm just waiting for November. I've waited more than three years. Only ten months to go.
