First of all... I am happy to report that Spud, a fellow blogger of TV News, is back up and running after taking a brief hiatus. Today, he was on "fire" about the decision of MSNBC to continually update its viewers on the status of a house on fire in Oregon.
He does a good job of analyzing the situation here. The bigger question that goes largely implied, but never really stated in this article is this: what qualifies as news on a cable network. I can guarantee you that if my house caught on fire, it would never make CNN, MSNBC, or FOX News. It would be lucky to make the local news.
