Nation’s Talking Heads Return From Summer Vacations, Calamity Forthcoming

As August comes to a close, the last of the nation’s hundreds of big- and small-name talking heads are returning from vacation and America braces for something big, bad, and newsworthy to happen. It could be a “terrorist” attack, a financial meltdown, or a natural disaster.

But the important thing is that it did not occur during the summer, which is traditionally slow for the news cycle and bad for ratings. Now that all the reporters are back, American viewers will without a doubt know what to think about what happens.

Clint Green of Sacramento laments that his local news team was out of town the week of the Utah mine collapse. “They had a substitute team on but it just wasn’t the same. I didn’t know how to feel about what was happening. My wife sent an e-mail to one of the anchors, Karen Sanchez, but never got a reply.”
