The news covers it in short clips. I would prefer a whole show boiled down to an hour. I sometimes get impatient with the news. They cover too much stuff in a short time.

I also detest the use of "teasers." Why can't they just say, "Coming up in about 45 minutes," instead of "Coming up," which implies coming up next.

But I still watch a lot of TV news. Then I read it in the paper for the whole story.
