	I agree with Andy Banta.  Why get upset because your favorite
show isn't on?  Presidential debates, crisis coverage, etc. should
be shown on tv.  But I also agree with gts.  There is no in depth
news coverage on tv.  So, if you like your news brief and entertaining,
watch tv.  If you like in depth coverage, read the newspaper (for
ALL the facts).  As far as missing your favorite show well, so did
the rest of the country.  A little suspense never hurt anybody.
Besides, tv news coverage is pretty entertaining, especially if
you have already read the newspaper and know a little bit more 
than what's covered in a 3 minute "wrap up".
