Hi JenEllen! I am sometimes fascinated by tv. I work so terribly hard, that falling asleep in front of the tele is pure joy! Propaganda blows my mind... and I like to kinda stay on top of it... so where else but network news? ... and... since I work outdoors, it is fun to surf between all the different weather reports...

My appraoch to tv is simple. They are trying to give us what we want, but most of us are satisfied with strained vegetables. I am fond of the occasional game (with sound off and the classical music raadio on), and anything genuinely informative that transcends the usual (fox) slease slop...

In short, PBS, with occasional surfing amoungst the clamoring of networks...

I watch a lot of movies, most of which come from the public library system. They are free, you can keep em for weeks at a time, and the selection is sometimes quite good!

Charlie Rose is rather late, but Fantastic!... and "The News Hour" is my savior... ttr
