TV without pity

Does Television Without Pity rule the television viewer's mind? I had never even heard of that organization. What kind of importance do they have? Saying that the president of a family value organization has expressed against the Howard Stern show, for example, would seem more senseless to me, but Television Without Pity??

The best way to do it is to stick to the facts and leave the praises or critizism out, although I admit, some cases do deserve some expert's opinions, but Kaie Couric is a journalist, and, to me at least, most journalists pretty much do the same thing, they explain the news to their best ability, detaching themselves from a human side to the news and staying neutral.

Rewrite

I agree with some revision. Parents' religion?, "why?" Delta Delta Delta? Being invited to live on The Lawn? This sounds like it was written by a sorority sister still stuck in college life, not by someone who has any biographic writing credentials. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.49.198.143 (talk • contribs) 12:52, 6 April 2006

Does anyone watch the evening news anymore?

Kouric is going to host a show in decline. So what? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.100.42.18 (talk • contribs) 01:41, 7 April 2006

Brooks Perlin

Why is her 5 year common law relationship with Brooks Perlin not mentioned? She described him as her boy toy mistake and it caused an estrangement from her parents and daughters.

The article includes a lot of snippets which seem to me to be ill-befitting a Wikipedia article -- specifically, it includes quotes from seemingly random TV interviews without explaining why they're worth mentioning in this article. ARoseThorn (talk) 16:18, 28 February 2024 (UTC)Reply
