When television news started out back in the 1950s it occupied
less than a thirty-minute slot. Ten or fifteen minutes would be granted to local stations for their news and then the networks would say all there was to say about national and world news in the remaining fifteen to twenty minutes. There were very few advertisements during the news; it wasn't regarded as appropriate to sponsor news about floods and fires and political disasters. Life must have been simpler then.
Nowadays many television stations set apart ninety minutes for local news alone and that's just for the early evening news show. On March 17 1998 (St. Patrick's Day), we watched a local news show in Hartford for one hour from 5 to 6 p.m. and kept track of what seemed to be really news and what was -- well not news…
