Television newscasters
present a wide variety of subject matter to their viewers. The subject matter
included in an hour-long program varies widely, and includes specific segments
peppered in between with commercials.
Developing stories or
follow-ups to yesterdays’ events keep people informed and in synch. Dinner
table conversations following the early news can include the sharing of
differing opinions, outright debates, or conservative deference to noisiness.
The world of Sports includes
analyses, discussion and a lot of biliousness after the games are lost, players
are traded, or free-agency is in place. All the what ifs, whens and whys is
fodder for anyone who earns their living by encouraging dialogue and discussion.
The sputtering and exclaimed
remarks might be thought of as philosophizing – last night I learned a new
adjective however... A slip of an overly-excited tongue blurted out the word
“fossilizing”; which indeed caused me to do a double take!
