I was invited to attend a free luncheon Town Hall with Katie Couric... Should I take off work to go?

I went and it was actually pretty interesting... An exec from CBS and Katie Couric basically just talked to about 80 of us about the news, what we wanted, what was wrong with the news, and different ways to receive the news.
Picture of Katie:  Video of Katie that I took: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AAOET7sI9Sk She was really nice. I brought up that I want my news to be facts, not opinions. The point of the news is to allow me to form an opinion. She agreed with me. I went on to talk about how I thought a lot of the news was sensationalism and that I felt they should focus on international news. -------------------- "There is a level of cowardice lower than that of the conformist: that of the fashionable non-conformist." |
