When news hacks try to be different they're often merely the same. This scribbler says Bob Keeshan and Fred Rogers were hopelessly dull and that modern TV does a better job of placating very young children. Obviously this guy never heard of ADHD. He never heard of the "I Hate Barney" clubs or the the ridicule of the Teletubbies either. And what's a news hack's bloviation without a little trendy jargon? "Layered stories" is a code word like "multitasking," which is a code word for confusion. No, Bob Keeshan and Fred Rogers didn't like lies, but they probably didn't like the aggressive half-truths of news hacks, either.
