A little while later, as Cronkite was bemoaning the raised voices on cable-television "news" shows, here came John McLaughlin, the host of The McLaughlin Group, the public-affairs roundtable that elevated shouting to an art form. "How's Betsy?"

Great article. Thanks for posting it. I was tickled by the above comment. My primary consideration for TV news is whether everyone talks in a normal voice and one at a time. That's so hard to find that I can't bother about further considerations such as what the bias might be. You can't make sense out of what you hear if you can't hear the speakers make their points. The only TV news show I know of that meets my criterion is Lehrer.
