News Hour

Writes Alan Turin: “Of all the broadcast news programs the one I’ve liked the most for 20 plus years is the News Hour, formerly the McNeil-Lehrer News Report. Last night their lead story was Ron Paul announcing his candidacy for president. They went into his being the LP candidate in 1988 and that ‘he was seeking the Republican nomination and that he was a strict constitutionalist and opposed the war in Iraq. Straight news, no irony, not a story looking into ‘obscure’ candidates.”
