David Bauder of the Associated Press writes about how ABC News will have coverage of how businesses and consumers have changed how they operate in the wake of the economic crisis across a broad range of its shows next week.
“‘It is a symbol to say that this is an important issue, not just an urgent issue, because too often the urgent drives out the important in all of our lives,’ Westin said.
“Too often there’s a tendency, particularly with cable news and business channels, to cover news like a box score each day. (Are stock prices going up or down?)
“ABC’s rivals at NBC have arguably benefited over the past year with the economic story coming to the fore because of its association with CNBC.
