I'd concur with Les's analysis of the reporter finding two angles to the event.
The report on TV was done in a fun way - with a whimsical tone in Juanita Phillips voice when listing the astrologers claims. Her voice sounded more serious when introducing the AAO Directors comment, which they most appropriately put at the end as the serious 'voice of reason'.
TV News is popular culture- the alignment's aesthetic significance would have been lost on the audience, but the astrology angle made the piece fun. It was a puff piece at the end of the bulletin- and I for one enjoyed it. Dave Eicher needs to lighten up- perhaps he needs to move `down under' himself.
