The only news on TV that competes with Al Jazeera and BBC is the PBS Newshour. CNN, MSNBC and Faux are completely worthless with the possible exceptions of Morning Joe & Chuck Todd's morning shows on MSNBC and Fareed Zakaria on CNN on Sundays. Evenings on any of the three big American cable "news" outlets is a total wasteland.

As a sidebar to this BBC's Lyse Doucet just received the OBE among the many other awards she has received over the years. Pretty impressive for a Canadian girl from New Brunswick
