...networks are battling this viewer erosion by trying to expand their news offerings--into new time periods, like prime time, as well as into cable and the new technologies. NBC has been the most aggressive in this regard, with two cable-news networks, an Internet news service in conjunction with Microsoft, and NBC Superchannel, a programming service in Europe. "We've always been in the news-gathering business 24 hours a day," says NBC News president Andrew Lack. "Now we can provide our viewers--whether on the PC or on television--this information 24 hours...

By trying so hard to tailor their convention for TV, they drained it of most of the qualities--the old-fashioned theatrics, the contentious egos--that attracted viewers and journalists in the first place.
