I want to know why we don't have more than ONE damn news story every GD da [View all]

Every GD station running one story wit the same GD commentar over and over! There are tons of things happening in the world but oh no we got one story drilled and yanked to death...meaning whatever Trump does usually. There are people making history, discoveries being made, other joy or tragedies unfolding but NO we gotta loop continuously on one GD story, kinda like the media has attention re-deficit disorder... can't think , show, present beyond the "big" story for a whole GD day or sometimes a whole GD week. Are they stupid or just lazy? Could be both.
