The Korean tragedy news was front line news for a while, but not long. CNN is just catering to the appeptite of the public. What I found astounding was that TWO channels were broadcasting competing Michael Jackson programs simultaneously for two hours. I can't believe this is what the audience want.

The movie question:
70's: some major movies: Godfather I & II, Star Wars, Deer Hunter, The Last Picture Show, Jaws, MASH, Taxi Driver, Annie Hall
80's: draw a blank. Maybe all those teen slasher movies is a typical of the era. and Top Gun, Rambo. (god, eighties sucks)
