Terrible People

On TV

“I like to watch the news, because I don’t like people very much and when you watch the news ... if you ever had an idea that people were really terrible, you could watch the news and know that you’re right.” 

—Frank Zappa (1940-1993), guitarist, composer, filmmaker, iconoclast.
