Part of me, also, is like "Is this the quality of stuff my parents watch all day??" because yeah, some of it is basically harmless, but... some of it (and the ads) are really kind of alarming, especially if they're not watching anything else

At one point it was mostly just milquetoast headlines and very non-hard-hitting news updates (subway delays, it's raining, look at this cute raccoon, &c), was reasonably useful for Toronto morning commuters. Rogers have def shifted 24 hour "news" talk shows into unhealthy talking heads.
Breakfast TV fired a couple hosts + many longtime staff recently, so everything took a steep nosedive. It was always kinda’ trashy, but it was a professional kind of trashy.
My parents literally wake up in the morning and turn on the TV and this is what they're watching all day, including this garbage morning stuff, and now I'm like "Ohhhhh yeah no this FEELS unhealthy"
