...are spending way too much time watching instead of listening?

Or, just as importantly, instead of writing?

I can't say exactly when show reports morphed from actual reporting into "photojournalism", but the trend has in my opinion been an unhappy one. Granted, the audience response may well be terrific, but insofar as it sanctions the sorry transition from two-channel stereo (ears) to home theatre (eyes), I must lodge a protest.

And anyway, just look (!) at what's become of it here.
