Mitch examines one of the most infamous Australian examples of the 24-hour news cycle taking TV news reporting too far, and wonders if anyone actually learned any of the all-too-obvious lessons from the exercise. He also turns a baleful eye towards the stereotypical complaints boomers express about everything wrong with today's world.
