Sue's Morning Stretch: What's happening on TV talk shows

SHARE Sue's Morning Stretch: What's happening on TV talk shows

I’m back! Here’s what caught my eye today:

  • Bad news for wine lovers. “Good Morning America” reported that a global wine shortage is on the way. Europe is producing less and the Chinese are drinking more, according to “GMA.” For U.S. consumers that probably will mean a price hike on our favorite vinos.
  • “Today” talking about new website, MediBid.com, that lets you put on the site a description of what your surgery need is and then doctors bid on it. Cuts costs, but medical establishment has concerns about quality. Interesting fact: more than a million people hear overseas each year for medical procedures. Man in story paid $50,000 less for hip surgery that relieved him of constant pain. How many think we wouldn’t be making these decisions if medical costs weren’t sky high here?
  • Make that cute baby stop crying!! Saw emoting infant crying to heartfelt song the talented mommy was belting out on “You & Me This Morning” and later “GMA.” Babies can and do mirror feelings/facial expressions of their parents/caregivers, according to “GMA.”
  • Will Arnett on “CBS This Morning” talking about his new CBS (natch) comedy “The Millers,” where he is a local TV journalist. What he’s discovered about local journalism as a job: “I learned how difficult it is. It’s not that glamorous.” Got that right!
