Do
you think town criers should replace Twitter’s tweets? A town crier popped up
at St. Mary’s Hospital in London to announce the royal birth of Prince William
and Kate’s son. If you haven’t seen the announcement of the good news, take a
look:

We
should definitely import this occupation from the Britain to America! We could
position a town crier at every town’s post office to proclaim all the news
that’s fit to yell and worth knowing. TCTV (Town crier TV) could be the
television station that broadcasts all of the nation’s town criers so that we’d
have all the important information from across the country. Doesn’t this idea
sound so much more entertaining than our current news programs or those
limiting 140-character tweets? Not only could town criers give us the news and
nothing but the news, these new jobs would also lower the unemployment
rate—it’s a win-win for everyone. Once this plan is adopted and your town has
its very own announcer, what’s the first piece of good news you want your town
crier to proclaim?
