Not nearly as sexy as the the first 45mins of Survivors, which is secretly what they wish was happening.
If everyone in the media was cool, calm and collected about a lot of things (this included), then how would they fill the airtime on the the 24 hour new channels? They need stories like this to carry on for as long as possible to fill airtime and sell adverts..
