Radio Reporter Misses Live Broadcast Because of Facebook
This past Sunday, the listeners of Australian radio station 3AW's afternoon news broadcast were puzzled to hear the news segment's theme music followed, not by the news, but by advertisements. The reason for this misstep? According to a station insider, the designated news reader was, instead of reading the news, obliviously browsing through her Facebook account.

Facebook is a computer site. In and of itself, it is useless. It requires human interaction to become relevant. How can it be the reason for someone's actions? "Radio Reporter Misses Live Broadcast Because of Facebook"? This title is an example of what's wrong with American society: Blame someone or something for our own problems/mistakes instead of taking responsibility. The caption should read, "Unemployed Radio Reporter Can Now Look At Facebook All She Wants."
