Why Can't I Watch "News" Anymore?

[PITTM]

Why are there 5 news channels in a row and there is never any relevant "news" playing on them? As interested as we all should be in a shark attack, a kid getting lost in the woods 3 states away, or the missing girl in aruba, i really could use some actual "news" coverage of ground operations in the war we are currently engaged in, news about ANY of the things the leaders in our government say. i really dont understand this at all. Am i crazy here?
