News Updates

1. The US and Iran held formal talks for the first time since 1980, when Iran took US people as hostage. So just to make sure I understand this, we can talk to Iran, we can re-establish diplomatic relations and travel to Vietnam whom we had a war with but a country 90 miles away from Florida we can’t talk to because they are Communist. It doesn’t make any sense to me.

2. Sorry to hear that Charles Nelson Reilly died. I think he’s the reason why there’s a Game Show Network.

3. Not sure if you heard about Venezuela shutting down the opposition TV station by ‘not renewing their license,’ but I didn’t see it on the regular news over the weekend. You know where I heard about it? Telemundo. Nice to see our news reporting sucks compared to any other station in the world. Well that may not be true, but you know what I mean — we can spend 200 hours talking about Anna Nicole’s will and Lindsay’s drinking problem, but we can’t talk about the actual important stuff….unbelievable..

    Strategically, Cuba means very little to us. Why doesn’t that make sense?

    NPR covered the Venezuela radio situation a few weeks back. The situation isn’t as cut and dried as it can be made out to be, but it is a shame that the station is being effectively shut down by the government.
