Media News Down in the Dumps

In a recent article posted by Poynteronline's Media Business Analyst, Rick Edmonds the audience volume for newspapers, cable television, network news, and online news has fallen off. Between June 2005 and June 2006, those people who claimed they received their news fix from online sources dropped from 34 to 27 percent; this information obtained from a Pew Research Center report. The State of the News Media 2007 which was released by the Project for Excellence in Journalism reported such findings, but was unable to find the exact cause of these changes.
In my opinion, I feel people are too busy woking and paying taxes to watch the news. And then it's so depressing when you actually do get a chance to get enlightened. Most of the time you just find yourself turning on Channel 4 just long enough to get that very useful information located at the very bottom of the page which is the present temperature outside because with this ever changing Florida weather you might just need a coat as well as the time because who wants to be late for work or school. Not me. You can view this entire article in detail at the following link:

Star Jones A Star Again?

In an article posted for CNN's news website, previous co-host of the daytime show "The View", Star Jones Reynolds has landed her own daily talk show to be aired on Court TV sometime this fall. The show will combine criminal justice and political issues with pop culture which will definitely broaden the lineup choices for daytime TV. Reynolds who began on "The View" in 1997 refused to give any comments about the show breakup and vindication but wished the present hosts the best and that hoped they'd do the same for her.
In my opinion, I believe that this is great for Star Jones. All things happen for a reason right? I'm just worried about the number of people who actually watch Court TV. I know I don't. Ha! You know the deal, click the link:
