Pray to the TV

From Turn The TV Off | ThinkProgress

Washington, DC’s weirdest and easiest to fix pathology is the habit of high-level politicians and political aides gluing their eyes to low-audience nonsense on daytime cable television. For example:
In his West Wing corner office, [William] Daley keeps his television tuned to CNBC to keep track of how the fiscal battles are playing in the financial markets.

Hell, everyone in power in America has been raised on television, there are no "pre-tv" people left, it's no wonder they treat TV as a god.
