Like everyone else they're devoting a lot of time, very early (it's NEXT F*CKING YEAR!) to the US Presidential election, and, as usual, 90% of their time is horse-race crap. How should so-and-so's campaign handle this jab? How're those poll numbers looking? Issues and fact-checking statements and positions are a rare afterthought. It's awful. Plus my local station spends so much time on ads anymore (sponsor messages, promos for other NPR programs, trying to convince me to give them my car) that it's nigh-intolerable even if the coverage were any good, which it's not.
