watchers. We have become a nation of listeners, totally focused on being spoon fed all the issues, no matter the importance. And the visual and audio power of this replacement of printed media is stifling the ability to consider and judge the issues.

This is just a comment. And I know it will be generally unimportant in the main. But a little bit here, a little more there, maybe it will pique someone's interest and we can begin a dialogue that will make a difference. And, if someone gets involved and starts that important discussion on the issues, this little missile of words will have worked the magi

In the world today, particularly in this country, there seems to be total obsession with the most trivial of affairs in every day life. In the midst of international disasters, there seems to be unhealthy interest in the incarceration of a totally self-indulgent offspring of one of the nation's oldest and most aristocratic families. In the midst of world turmoil, is this really that important?

With the pending national election of a new president, and a large number of candidates in the race, much more television time is given to the childish cat fight of a pair of stars of a daily talk show, supposedly for the females of the morning. These two allegedly intelligent ladies of the morning talk show became embroiled in what might be considered an exchange of words that would have been appropriate to the green room and not aired on national television. To borrow a phrase from a well know tele personality, "Give me a break!"

But this little nonsensical exchange of words is the talk of the town. Even the Donald got involved. Or, at least, involved himself. Sure does smack of playground spats that we all remember and know about.

The point here, where is all this childish nonsense going to end? Is this more important than the real issues of the nation and the world. In some spots in the world, people are dying and we seem to be interested in a couple of tele hot shots airing their differences while we watch with total involvement. Give me a break.

It is time we awakened and smelled the roses. We need to become involved with what is really important and stop being obsessed with triviality. Who should really care when two tv stars air their differences with so such vulgarity. There are so many more really important issues that should, that MUST be addressed. There needs to be a dialogue started on some of the real issues facing this nation. Or, actually, the world.

I realize that what I am putting down here will, in the main, be ignored. This is just a tiny speck in a huge sandstorm of controversy. Probably it will never become an irritant in the right places. But, if we don't begin taking the time to let our opinions be known, nothing will happen. There will continue to be more interest in the trivial moments than the really important happening in the world.

I heard the point being emphasized on a television talk show last night that we, as a nation, have ceased to be readers, but watchers.
