Buh-Bye

Television has just lost an immense amount of pomposity, windbaggery and ignorance.

Of course, given that it's television, infinite amounts of all three qualities remain. Infinity doesn't work like a real number does -- no matter how large of an amount you subtract from it, it's still infinity. As blessed as Olbermann-less airwaves will be, there are enough O'Donnells, Shultzes, O'Reillys, Behars, Hannitys, Graces and so on to insure TV's record of saying anything but teaching nothing remains intact.
