News reaches TV 4 billion years late

Text criticizes superficiality and clichés in current TV news, questioning loss of relevance and credibility.

There are many data points of reality to support my hypothesis that the world is getting more cretinous. A reporter said, this week, that “the sun shines in Cascavel” (it has been doing so for more than 4 billion years). But you are here too. Perhaps you have already noticed.

We have no more steps left to descend.

Let us settle this subject once and for all, then. That same reporter said that “the city hall needs a more latent action” in cleaning the square. I start my good morning with great joy! 😂

What we have “achieved” is the perception that television journalism is retrograde, when not ridiculous. Dressed as Instagram, it manages to be even more ridiculous — to paraphrase Fernando Pessoa. Architect Fernando Camargo has just left university. We have zero degree of influence over him, as far as news is concerned. His text, in the screenshot, is bone-chilling.
