One sees things in a laundromat one would not see at home - daytime TV, for example.

Real, serious, authoritative analysts are writing endlessly on what trash the basic content of daytime TV is, so I won't go there. What I did find interesting, though, was the mid-day half-hour newscast (this was on the local ABC/Disney affiliate, but it could probably be all of 'em), in which we find that the old wheeze "if it bleeds it leads" (this time, a major car wreck and the Economy, both pretty bloody stuff) still holds.
