Since it's the last three-day weekend of the summer, TV probably shouldn't be a major focus of your attention. That's why HBO's Sunday night lineup -- "True Blood," "Hung," and "Entourage" -- is taking a holiday and airing reruns. But not everything's a rerun this weekend.

We're still talking about 20 million news viewers
It's easy to dismiss the importance of ABC's announcement Wednesday that Diane Sawyer is taking over the "World News" anchor chair from Charlie Gibson at the beginning of 2010. After all, nobody watches those evening newscasts anymore -- depending on how you define "nobody."

Of course Milwaukee TV went live with Favre
If I was back in my old newspaper job, I'd have been taking phone calls over the past two days from viewers of the network newscasts on Channels 4, 12 and 58, complaining about how their daily habit was disrupted by live coverage of Brett Favre's first public appearance as a Viking. There are only two big news stories, as far as Milwaukee TV is concerned, the weather and the Green Bay Packers.
