I agree with speed being an issue with TV news having trouble keeping up with the speed of internet light.
But I also see it as a problems of media consolidation.
Far more media distribution channels in print/radio/tv today than 20 years ago, but the number of media owners has shrunk considerably.
To me the actual news value and variety has crashed.
And to top it off news channels gets paid for the eyeballs they collect so they are motivated by the promotion of fear and rage. Zimmerman case in point.
I get my news by subscription on the net.
Free news advise is often worth less than nothing.
CNBC around 99-00 did it for me.
