	Infotainment - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Infotainment -term change or point of interest, or a general trend—an aspect of the zeitgeist.
		infotainment" is emblematic of concern and criticism that journalism is devolving from a medium which conveys serious information about issues that affect the public interest, into a form of entertainment which happens to have fresh "facts" in the mix.
		The infotainment concept is taken to its logical extreme by the increasingly ubiquitous "infomercial", which is blatant, thinly disguised advertising presented as though it were Infotainment.

	Vox Popoli: Media Whores: the first chapter
		With the gradual transformation of what was once news into infotainment, the requirements for the talking heads who serve as the primary conduit from the beast to its beholders changed too.
		Infotainment had long been present within the cabal, of course, but it was kept on the sidelines by an embarrassed media elite, in the context of crossover shows like 20/20 and Today.
		The terror of creeping infotainment at the networks during the early Eighties was such that Ms Walters managed to hold a co-anchor spot at ABC only briefly before being banished to matters arboreal.

	The Disregard of Truth and Accuracy \| WesPac \| Securing America Community
		Hard news, presenting investigative reporting and facts, has been replaced by Infotainment in which entertainers--often with clear political leanings--have supplanted more objective journalists as the people bringing the average American his or her news.
		I was told that the 3 infotainers in their lineup DO present a range of opinion, in that Boortz is libertarian, Hannity is conservative, and Savage is just offensive to everyone.
		It really scares me at this point that these infotainment shows have damaged the media reputation so badly, that actual journalism and truth can't be accepted or is written off because of association.

	1994 White House Correspondents Dinner
		See the thing is, we have a complete guest list here, and I suppose if it comes out later that you have a problem, then it can kind of be construed that you were lying.
		But it is truly the Infotainment Superhighway, and most of here in the media are what I call "infotainers." Connie Chung is an info- tainer.
		And of course the American political system now is not particularly kind to candidates who are not good infotainers.

		It was assembled from easily available sources--Limbaugh's books, The Way Things Ought to Be and See, I Told You So; transcripts of several weeks' worth of his TV show; gleanings from as much of his radio show as we could take; and other published evaluations of Limbaugh's accuracy.
		Journalists were handed a list of items by this group, and they simply repeated them." In fact, journalists repeatedly asked tough questions of FAIR, sought added documentation, and did their own reporting.
		Limbaugh actually took this claim from an infotainment tip sheet called CBS Morning Resource--which is not part of CBS News, any more than a CBS game show is part of CBS's news operation.

		Yet Rush found a 1975 NY Times column by William Safire titled "The Things Nixon Never Did." Safire listed crimes and abuses that Nixon had yet to be accused of, such as ordering the murder of a fellow chief of state, as JFK was suspected of doing with Castro.

		Both MBC and Jet Blue are so big that they transcend tiny boycotts and limp wristed activism of infotainers.

		There is no question in my mind that despite the seemingly infinitely regressive and self-referential infotainment that is manufactured in the NYC sounding board/echo chamber, Michael Wolff (Burn Rate) does seem to cover media with a fearlessness that is both interesting and these days singular.
		If you do not know what 'short listing' is, you might consider doing some remedial work before reading on.
		Dirda's passionate devotion to reading did lead him to move beyond his proletarian roots and attend Oberlin College and the travel to Paris in 1968 at the age of nineteen, which is where this memoir ends.

		One is the simple listing of the countries that still carry out these executions along with data on the numbers of such executions since 1990.

		Of particular note will be how these liberal infotainers react to live telephone calls from talk radio’s overwhelmingly conservative audience.
		Kristen Breitweiser, who was made a widow by the act of terror, has also railed Bush for the ads, stating “three thousand people were murdered on President Bush's watch” and that event should not be used as “political propaganda”.
		First of all, if you’re going to start blaming anybody but the terrorists for what happened on 9-11, you better have plenty of paper and a lot of ink, because the list of names is astronomical.

	Amazon.com: Forgive Us Our Spins: Michael Moore and the Future of the Left: Books: Jesse Larner (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Larner argues passionately and convincingly that Moore's rollicking, pointed excursions in cinematic invective do his ostensible cause--promotion of liberal candidates and issues--more harm than good through obvious sins of omission and commission that conservatives use to disparage Moore's causes even more than him.
		Lerner maintains that Moore has become the equivalent of the Right's braying infotainers, inviting comparisons with Ann Coulter and other fast-and-loose cannons the Left despises.
		Despite such criticism, Larner betrays a bit of discomfort for pillorying a fellow-traveler in the epilogue, in which he pointedly, and probably ineffectually, challenges "decent and sincere traditional conservatives" to "take on [their] own team's excesses," mentioning Coulter, Charles Krauthammer, Rush Limbaugh, and Bill O'Reilly, in particular, as deserving targets.

	Journalism (1) Summary
		Each genre can have its own requirements for researching and writing reports.For example, newspaper journalists in the United States have traditionally written reports using the inverted pyramid style, although this style is used more for straight or hard news reports rather than features.
		Written hard news reports are expected to be spare in the use of words, and to list the most important information first, so that, if the story must be cut because there is not enough space for it, the least important facts will be automatically cut from the bottom.
		Editors usually ensure that reports are written as tightly as possible.

		Occupation officials in the Arabic Media and Programs Unit are maintaining a “truth matrix,” a computerized list of supposedly false or unfair broadcasts.
		The list, which includes more than 50 entries, cites, for example, an erroneous report on April 21 by Al Jazeera that two American helicopters were downed in Falluja, and, on April 20, an Al Arabiya broadcast that coalition forces had used civilians as “human shields.”

	Centerfield: Pump Up the Volume
		There is plenty of evidence that the very real disputes pushed by political activists and chair-throwing media yakkers—call this the Anger-Industrial Complex—are being carelessly extrapolated to include a far less vehement populace.
		A new Annenberg poll shows that the two infotainers are little more than postmodern tribal leaders: an estimated 8% of Americans saw Fahrenheit 9/11 in July, and an estimated 7% listened to Limbaugh.
		Their tribes are hilariously antithetical on a range of issues—83% of Rushites support the way Bush is handling Iraq, 87% of Mooreists are opposed; 85% of Rushites support Bush's handling of the economy, and 82% of Mooreists don't.

		But the CIA Factbook on Iraq notes: "Per capita output and living standards were still well below the pre-1991 level, but any estimates have a wide range of error.
		One assumes that World Bank President Paul Wolfowitz must be pleased that Iraq doesn't make the Bank's list; that under his watch Iraq is not classed as a "fragile" state.
