“Picking your nose . . . can kill you.” The admonition came from a doctor. I knew he was a doctor because he was wearing blue scrubs and he wagged a latex-swaddled index finger at the television camera. It may have scared his studio audience, but I had to laugh.
It’s all so ludicrous. But it made me stop and watch.
That, in a nutshell, is what’s wrong with TV news.
