While I Drink My Coffee

There is a famous story in the Talmud where someone came to a renowned scholar and asked him to teach him everything he knew while he was standing on one foot. We are really posing the challenge every day to the medias. We want information about Wall Street, the stock exchange, international and domestic politics, to laugh, to learn and to make our own opinion before we finish this coffee. Therefore, the medias have had to take the difficult challenge to give us all of that in such a way that it wouldn't take more than 5 minutes of our time to know what they have to tell us. If they don't fish us and inform us rapidly enough, they are dead, all of them. In such a situation what can only wonder about the quality not only of the medias delivery but of the so-called "informed citizen". Is "coffee informed" informed enough?
