Dis Coarse Discourse 0
Will Bunch, discussing CNN’s stupid coverage of the Zimmerman trial,* drafts the obituary for cable TV. A nugget:
I can remember when I watched CourtTV fairly regularly; I particularly enjoyed “Forensic Files,” which was a relief from the fantasy science fiction world of CSI.
That was before it changed its name to TruTV and became yet another cesspool of “reality shows.”

*It’s stupid because there’s no story until the verdict is delivered, and that’s not the story that matters.
The story that matters is that George Zimmerman thought it was okay to stalk and kill a kid because he didn’t like the kid’s skin color and that he’s not alone in thinking like that.
