The sound of daily life

I am getting coffee in the break room and the tv mumbles above me--the patient distinct tone of someone explaining....

Without looking up I know that that the box is tuned to the sports channel. I look up and I'm right: ESPN.

What strikes me is the knowledge that I can also recognize the tone associated with the news. FOX or CNN. Not patient, not discursive. Always screaming and full of alarm.

Something is definitely wrong with that picture.
