News That's Not Newsworthy


This morning I awoke to heavy rains, like much of the country. Naturally this normal weather condition has been turned into MAJOR BREAKING NEWS, even though it's been raining since the Dawn of Man, or even the Beginning of Time. Whipped into a frenzy concerning two friends who live in Baltimore and  D.C., cities the news reported experiencing "severe conditions" with floods washing away cars, high winds downing trees and trapping people in their homes and widespread power outrages, I texted them. They both replied that everything was fine -- it was "raining" and "windy."

Having to make enough money to justify the cost of makeup for the bimbos and mimbos hired to smile into the camera and look pretty, TV and Internet execs scrounge around looking for news anywhere they can find it. Another story that broke today centered on a man I never heard of (Wayne Brady) who is the host of the game show Let's Make A Deal. Brady (drum roll here) "came out as pansexual." 

Apparently pansexual is different form bisexual. Who knew? The latter means you are attracted to both men and women, while the former means you are attracted to anything with a pulse. I suppose this information is important to share about yourself so others will know to keep a safe distance and never, ever enter an empty elevator with you. Still, is it really justifiable as newsworthy? Wake me when there's a school shooting or Kamala Harris says something stupid again, two things worth tuning in for.
