Seems to me that it was. Good old Walter Cronkite type of news. Everybody got a fair shake and "just the facts." And "breaking news" brought everyone in the house to the TV, because breaking news really did mean something major had happened. Very different from the breaking news repeatedly used today until we're all desensitized.
Speaking of news, I saw that a couple of hotels were smashed up in the hurricane. I saw that and I wonder why anyone builds a hotel in such a location?
