The Editor,

Re: "Blame TV's reality woes on Springer," the Now, Sept. 20.

What a very readable column this week from Michael Booth on the wasteland that masquerades as entertainment on that idiot box which takes up space in our homes.

I could have written every single word myself and I know I am not alone. How today's generations can go out and purchase a cellphone that gives them 24 TV channels to watch during the time they are away from home is beyond me, especially when the offerings are so banal.
