Right.  And I notice that many other news commentary programs try the 
same approach, or at least try to come across as like this in their 
advertisements.

But, as I said, I personally see this as a matter of style rather than 
substance.  (And I should add that this isn't a black/white thing - I do 
see that the style can have a substantive impact, nevertheless the style 
part is a very dark grey, and the substantive part is a very light grey.)
