Apparently, Rooney doesn't remember the days when WGBH had <a href="http://main.wgbh.org/ton/">its own local newscast</a>. Instead of complaining how vapid the commercial newscasts are, why not restart it? Isn't public television supposed to provide intelligent alternatives to commercial TV? Or has it all come down to Peter, Paul and Mary concerts during Pledge Week?</p> </p> http://www.universalhub.com/node/13850#comments Media Channel 2 Emily Rooney Mike Barnicle WBUR Fri, 04 Apr 2008 16:22:07 -0400 adamg 13850 at http://www.universalhub.com
