Television = Barbarism

Tom Wolfe brands television news reporters a gang of intellectually handicapped misfits.

“As newspapers are declining rapidly . . . I would just point out, all news today comes from newspapers. All of it. Television has never initiated a successful story in its life. When they have a big story, it’s always wrong.” He cited as an example Dan Rather’s bogus story about George W. Bush’s National Guard service and declared, “Idiots!”

White suits don’t look good on the tube either.
