PBS Newshour

I am a 77yo retiree, actively follow many news sources, a longtime member of PBS (WTVS Detroit. I have become increasingly disenchanted by the Newshour.Briefly, it now reminds me of why so many people no longer have a daily newspaper delivered. With so many events happening worldwide and everything available almost immediately online, the Newshour seems woefully out of touch. Long segments with two talking heads going on and on ad nauseum. You have a Full Hour to cover a very busy news cycle and I feel it is mostly wasted. In a word - Boring! Whoever is responsible for the model you are using is out of touch. I wait for the BBC news segment which follows my local broadcast. In a half hour I get more news, from a European perspective, than most of what the Newshour delivers. I continue to be a member of PBS, but mainly for the Nature shows, Frontline, etc. I offer these comments with a sincere hope that you will consider what I have said. Thank You.
