2. Almost anything that Trump does NOW would be 'round-the clock news for being outrageous.

It's currently the norm, because he does it so often.

3. Rachael Maddow used to teach us to make cocktails

at the end of her show on Friday night.

Kinda nice!

4. We need cocktails more than ever

too bad there is no time now

5. They talked about tan suits and Grey Poupon mustard. You know the important stuff.

[Mike Nelson]

6. We had...

... The OJ Story... The Anna Nicole Smith Death... The Missing Natalie Holloway... All-Monica, All the Time... several were mainly FOX, but they made the others participate. The moment I remember is when FOX sent Greta to a Florida beach, after a pair of panties washed up on shore. FOX loved that story, and having their newsreaders say "panties" over and over was rating gold.

8. Are you talking about

the years when every day was not "breaking news?" When you turned on the T.V and there was not any red box talking about the latest crap? Could you be talking about the days when we did not have "several" "breaking news" in one day?

9. They covered the monthly congressional bill to repeal the ACA.

Pass the house, pass the senate, get vetoed by the president.

Repeat.

Also, there were fair and informative committee investigations into emails and Benghazi.

It was a much more civil time.

10. Unless there was a major news story, it was quite boring TBH.

11. I'm looking forward to boring news again. nt
