Who said the people want to be informed? Who said televisâ€" ion should be educational? Who cares whether the Gemini mis sions are successful? We had a prime example of that the other evening in the United States when aH three American â€" networks â€" cancelled and, in some cases, interrupted regularly â€" scheduled programs for news of the emergency Gemâ€" imi splashdown. NBC had over 3,000 telephone ealls of protest for cancelling "‘The Virginian" and "The Bob Hope Show". CBS had protests when they pulled off the program *‘Lost in Space‘"‘. ABC had more than 1,000 calls protesting three interruptions of "The Batman". The sexâ€"scandal in Ottawa was juicy while it lasted and people were interested, but only for about 48 hours. Newspapers are stil trying to keep it alive, but at‘s a dead issue now. The peoâ€" ple don‘t really care anymore. The attitude is simply this: Don‘t disturb my routineâ€"I want And God help any government or any governmentâ€" appointed commission who tries to take away entertainment and insert news information or educational programs on television. Maybe it‘s time the network bosses took a look at their news operations for the purpose of analyzing what the people really want. Radio should do the same. I bave always felt that news every 30 minutes, and even evâ€" ery hour, is not appreciated by listeners unless it‘s really new and earthâ€"shattering. to see my regular programs every day and to hell with world situations and problems.
