It's weird not being a "TV person"...
Like, I get that it's bad that NBC hired Ronna McDaniel... bad for "TV people", anyway. People who, like, actually watch TV. People who actually take TV news seriously.
I'll never understand watching commercial or cable TV. Especially TV "news". I'm 51 and never had cable. Not even as a kid (we had an antenna with terrible reception).
How is it still relevant? Why are people still watching commercial TV in this age of commercial-free streaming?
I'll never understand sitting through 5 minutes of commercials to watch 2 minutes of lying narcissists talk over each other on the boob-tube.
Just read the news. It's the same news, minus all the fake "personality" used to appeal to people's emotional responses through propaganda techniques that work best in an entirely passive medium like TV.
Reading is an activity. TV is not.
