They are all the same. I am sure you guys can find other examples. I refuse to believe that recycling of news is responsible reporting. Even if it is AP, there should be other versions of the story in the news.

I don't want them to editorialize the news. I want them to report. What is the point of having a whole bunch of the news stations runing the same stories? I want different coverage, different facts, not the same thing over and over.

because ultimately they are all owned by the same people on the same boards wielding the same money and also own the advertising companys that are using those stations as well

The facts are all the same. You have the right to choose, how would you like to read it.

Newspapers, televisions and radios are working from news provided by news gathering agencies (AP, Reuters, etc). They can log in to a database and read the news then use it freely (for a fee, of course). It means to them: they don't have to send reporters to Iraq if they don't want to, just use what the news agency's report has written.

Maybe because we all live in the same world and the events effect us all? Maybe because they are doing their jobs reporting what has happened instead of editorializing the events as they want you to see them. Just like government when you get to the national level and away from the local level, you get cookie cutter policies the are one size fits all.

They all have the same sources. The more bad things are the better. Bad news sells and they all look for it and they don't want to report on the many good things going on.

You answered your own question. They all use the same newswires. They can't send individual reporters out to cover every story.
