All the TV stations, all day long, droning on and on and on. All the facts they actually gave me could be covered in a 5 minute segment when they actually knew what the fuck was happening. They get some "spokesman" for some organization on the phone or a live feed, ask them 50 questions to which the answer is, "I don't have that information". The only information the "spokesman has, is shit everyone already knows.

They do the same thing here for an overturned truck on I-95, from the time their chopper gets there until the next scheduled news broadcast. So from 10 AM till noon the chopper circles the accident with the talking heads saying what they knew before the chopper got there and speculating for two hours about nothing but filler.
