So Tom and Katie got married at the weekend. Not, in my book, the biggest story of the day. But this didn’t stop MSNBC TV going overboard with its breaking news alerts.
MediaBistro has a sample of the constant breaking news astons that peppered five hours of “breaking news” coverage on the celebrity wedding.
Among the choice entries:
- Wedding of Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes to begin in minutes
- Cruise and Holmes ceremony to begin any minute now
- Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes getting married right now
- Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes are officially married
I guess it was a slow day in the MSNBC newsroom.
