Currently, news in video format suck big time. I prefer text format (including web sites) a million times over, and the reasons are many: I can absorb the news at my own speed (which might be faster, or slower, or on repeat, etc), I don't get hypnotized by messages addressed to my reptilian brain (such as bright colors, the newsperson's gestures and tone and facial expression, glitzy sounds, etc), and so on.

But maybe this will change in the future. For now, text mode is much less biased.
