IRRITATING TV !
As i write my blogs i have the TV going in the background . each week there are several programs that occur at the same time , makes life easy , since these are from the Major news Networks .
Al Jazeera , friday night , offers " The David frost interview ". CNN on Sunday features several items , as does CNBC . Saturday & Sunday night , there are two " Jimmy Fallon Shows " from 2100hrs .
Right now i am hearing the " facebook Obsession " on CNBC , with commercials intervening . Of course these network will haves need revenue to operate , but repeating the " Thomson reuters Ad. " three times consecutively , with the " LvMH share graph " alternating 5 times with " Burberry group share graph " in each Ad is considered entertaining ? BIG FAIL !
After this show , we will have " Jimmy Fallon " , now this guy's humour must be entertaining to some , since he is slated to take over from Jay Leno , whose humour i am able to understand ? i think ?
Weekends can be hugely entertaining , in that nearly all the Networks run a ticker tape feed , the attention to these at weekends is minimal . They tell you something , then forget to change the " Ticker Feed ", net result is that you are left thinking it is " April Fools Day ".
Another annoying habit is the " Self Publicity " that occurs on CNN , each half hour or more often if there is no World Crisis . One Ad will be a " Straight Product Ad. " then there will be blurbs for upcoming shows , maybe one will be the one you are in the middle of at that time , or already just finished for the day . Each evening of the week CNN has starting at 1800hrs GMT , " Richard Quest ", Chistiana Amanpour , Isha Sesay and Beckie Anderson finishing at 2000hrsGMT . Even during this period , CNN shovels out the reminders !
Even BBC World News , has jumped on the bandwaggon with their own self obsessions . France TV ( in English ) seems to be the least boring in this behaviour .
Yeah , i know , turn the TV off , listen to music !

UNINTENDED CONSEQUENCES !
With " Jacintha " committing Suicide today , two Sydney Radio Journalists will be wondering whether they have a job to go to on Monday ! Frankly a " DCM " is the least that they deserve for their " childish prank "!Did they really think that their audience , thought that the mischief they perpetrated , was " GOOD FUN "?
How much did their audience's reaction on Tuesday , have to do with their behaviour , the following day ? I have seen on the Sky TV Network , footage of their " Apology on Air " , more like justification than an apology , from my perspective ? Who viewing that footage could accept it as an apology ?
That the Duchess of Cambridge was " under the weather " caused her to be hospitalised , was bad enough , but instead of her state of Health being Good News to ALL ! It is now the subject of even more discomfort to that Lady ? Can you imagine how this Fine Lady is feeling ? She must be thinking , that she has contributed to the loss , by the Children and the Husband of their " Dearly Loved Wife and Mother "?
What is going over the Airwaves in Australia , i have yet to follow but it is continually being mentioned on AlJazeera , Russia Today , BBC World News , Sky News and many of the Continental Networks .
My Tweets on this Subject :
