And this afternoon, just as CBS was about to do its profile on Maryland's
Juan Dixon, Channel 13 (which had already been on the "story" all morning)
decided it was a good time for another 15 minute report to update us that
nothing new had happened. 

We were told last night that he'd been found, was cornered in a house with
hostages, and that the neighborhood was sealed off and residents who were
out should not go home.  Now, until the schmuck is caught, kills himself,
kills somebody else, is killed, or  something else newsworthy happens,
QUIT SCREWING UP REGULAR PROGRAMMING!
