My definition of a slow newsday is when the reporters start interviewing each other at some big event. I don't care if there are news crews from Outer Mongolia covering the Oscars.

The worst abuse of electrons is when they have interviews about a third reporter. Such as when an American journalist was killed recently in Homs, Syria, and the CBC called up her bureau chief and they gabbed for an inordinate length of time.
