Just obtained the latest ABC footage from Turkey's assault on the Kurdish cities there:
They followed that with what they identified as B-roll shots of an NRA meeting where Trump was mentioned:
Next up was a story from the southern border, about a citizens' militia trying to stop illegal border crossings:
They closed with a live interview with Bernie Sanders, showing the news crew how he's feeling after his heart attack and cardiac stent:
You should all bear well in mind the old entertainment industry adage (seen on more than a few crew members' T-shirts), which contains quite a bit of raw truth:
Theater is life.
Film is art.
Television is furniture.

After getting back from Bushdaddy's war, the first thing I noted was that the commercials had changed. About a month or so later I quit TV and haven't watched it since. Don't have a TV in the house.
It's like they're not even trying anymore. Perhaps after alienating the 2/3 of the country that are on the right or the middle of the political spectrum, they think that the only audience still watching are idiots?
It's a mystery.
Damn Chinese hammers.
I have not been to a movie since "Midway" was first released. I do not watch TV.
I am always amused at the amount and banality of conversation regarding all of these products, plus all of the various dunderhead activities (NBA, NFL, Baseball, etc).
And yet, here you are, on the internet, talking about them all...
I watch the TV, but it's so I can see old movies on DVD/Blu-ray and Amazon Prime or the University of YouTube. I watch so little cable/OTA that it isn't even a blip.
Amazing how much better my life has become since doing that an putting a hard leash on Facebook.
