TV people are idiots

Like many of you this morning, between eating my cereal and brushing my teeth I was watching President Obama's acceptance of the Nobel Peace Prize. Perhaps unlike many of you, I was, well, a little frustrated that the usual gang of pundits and "news" people who populate morning TV, like MSNBC's "Morning Zoo Crew," felt that their gasbagging on the morning's event was more important than letting you hear the musical performance that followed the presentation, even as it played silently in the background of their commentary.
