Song Description
Commentary on the 24-hour "news" talking head. Written in the spring of 2013, the song and sentiment predates Lara Logan's faux pas (but not Nancy Grace, Ann Coulter, etc.) The only reason that men are left out is the chorus and title work better as Miss Information rather than Mister Information.

Lyrics
MISS INFORMATION
VERSE 1
She whispers in your ear
She tells you a little white lie
Maybe it's something that you want to hear
You might know but you let it go by
She elaborates ornate fiction
The story that she builds is a house of cards
She worries more about her diction
Than gathering facts because that's so hard
CHORUS
She's Miss Information
Queen of mean upon the screen
She's Miss Information
Truth to her is quite obscene
VERSE 2
She's got it going 24--7
Don't you know that she just can't stop
Stay tuned for film at 11
Any more and my brain might pop
But you know she keeps going
She likes to tell you how to think
It's stock footage that she's showing
Cut so fast that you better not blink
CHORUS
VERSE 3
She say she's Wisdom but she's Miss Information
She peddles that line all over town
She never bothers with confirmation
As a matter of fact, it would slow her down
There's nothing you can tell her
There's nothing that she doesn't know
All you have to do is ask her
Put a nickel in and watch her go
