Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
So remember that thing when CNN reported that the Supreme Court overturned Obamacare?
Yeah, CNN is now saying "conflicting reports"
I'll wait for the evening news, I think.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
I'll wait for the evening news, I think.
There is still a news conference scheduled for 5.

Why do they keep forgetting: 24-hour news cycle means you can take an bit more time, be sure you get it right the first time.

Because books.
Sometimes it seems like all the 24-hour news cycle means is that everyone wants everything RIGHT NOW.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
24-hour news cycle means you can take an bit more time, be sure you get it right the first time.
That might be what 24-hours news cycle means, but isn't it exactly what internet news cycle doesn't mean? It seems pretty rare to wait it out in preference to being first--the level of surety-to-publish has slunk lower and lower.

True, the internet doesn't help either, although I don't think it's fair that the first thing when the pros screw up is to be all "Fricking bloggers," as if bloggers are the ones that are supposed to study ethics every semester.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Thanks for checking in, Nilly!
