TV Network Decline
Rick Du Brow’s column “CNN Brings the Famine Story Out of Africa” (Calendar, June 22) pinpoints one of the primary reasons for the decline of the three big networks--especially their news presentations. They have become top-heavy with huge salaries for anchors, reporters and producers.
The Big 3 try to make it up with more commercials and less program content--another reason for viewer dropout.
CNN carries its share of commercials too. But on CNN you seem to get a lot more in between.
