    That was great. Perfect "cookie cutter" outline of a typical mainstream media report.

    I rarely watch the news from regular channels.

    It's so stupid.

    I'll watch the Nightly Business Report, and their stories follow this format usually, too. But, like anything, I take what I need and leave the rest.

    "...it's just news. It's just news..."

    I do miss Paul "the Tannest Man on Earth" Kangas, though. He had that great, old school demeanor.

    There is adult language in the video. I thought this was supposed to be a family site (I've received punishment for offenses lesser than adult language), so until the video is removed and/or Chip is banned, I'll be sure to avoid this forum while browsing the internet with kids on my lap.

    Yeah, the intro to that show was so dated and they never changed it, but it was a fine business program.

    Playing the victim card while on your soapbox won't earn you any sympathy from me, but you've got a point. I've removed the video pending some clarification from Boss and GIK. I'm temporarily closing this thread in the meantime.

    All models are wrong. Some of them are useful.
