thepostman wrote:I'm not sure how anybody sits through any of those news commentary shows, regardless of the network. They are all so toxic.I agree. They used to be great now it’s an echo chamber depending on what side you’re on. Don’t believe me? Watch the reaction this weekend after what was dropped tonight

ballcoach15 wrote:Most media don't report the actual news, they are fiction writers. I have never understood why media sleeps with the liberal wackos.Not hard to understand at all. They sleep with liberal wackos because they ARE liberal wackos.

I often have no clue what's going on in the world. What crazy thing did Trump say or do and what was his opponents' response? I dont know. And knowing wouldnt effect me other than feeling an emotion. Live in ignorance with me friends. No use in wasting energy getting upset about things every day.Ha. I’m not sure that end of the spectrum is any better. I would counsel a broader scope of news knowledge. Is your mental energy better expended on Trumps latest Twitter storm or finding the reasons why Scandinavian countries are upgrading their defenses? Is an hour watching Hannity/Maddow a better use of your time then an hour of BBC / Sky World News?

I don't watch any news or TV, other than a ball game, golf tournament or last laps of NASCAR race.

At least with reading you can often get passed whatever sound byte audio and video segment producers want to sell.

Though, I think you’re criticizing the national news clickbait headlines that don’t worship Trump 100% of the time.
They are about as reliable as CNN at this point.
They do everything from editing their stories to remove racial descriptors from any story descriptions involving minority suspects in crimes, to promoting every SJW cause that is in vogue at the moment.
ballcoach15 wrote:has anyone figured out yet why most of the media "sleep with the liberals" ? Media should report the news, not make up news. Media should be 100% neutral.For starters you have to look at who own the news stations. Then you connect the corporations relationship with the C.I.A. You'll then figure out how the news has always been this way for decades. There's nothing new going on right now. Time Warner anyone?
