    I can agree with that, but when they keep showing the same thing on four separate news casts, then it ain't news anymore. Example: The golden gate serial murderer. I've seen it three times and I guarantee I'll see it again.

    I doubt anyone would listen to it if they called it "olds" (as opposed to "news") This post was edited by Shuhak at April 28, 2018 6:33 AM MDT

    Maybe if we didn't watch so much TV, it wouldn't be heard over and over again?  Just a thought.

    Honey, I don't know what planet you are on, but I have NEVER seen anything like the news that has played out for the last two years.  It is never the same.  It escalates daily.  

    There is NOTHING ever to compare with life in Amerika in 2018.  We actually may NOT survive this.

    What do you want for an encore?  Trump in bed with Putin?  Already happened.
