All Reagan, all the time

I'm not saying that Reagan's death and funeral don't deserve any coverage, or even that they don't deserve a lot of coverage, but it's all I've seen since he died. In the morning, in the evening, late at night, Reagan, Reagan, Reagan. In vain I've flipped channels, looking for news of the Bush administration's torture memos (summary: "Torture is OK, because the president is above the law, and anyway we can define torture in such a way that it's not really torture") or of Ashcroft's testimony before Congress yesterday. While watching CNN's Reagan coverage this morning, I thought to myself, wouldn't it be great if there was, like, a 24 hour cable channel devoted solely to news? Or even, maybe just a network morning show that would cover actual news. Somebody should look into that.
