Haha… I can’t stand Fox, CNN, MSNBC… all of them are fake news. Literally every side has such an extreme narrative and puts their spin on it, that after a few mins I’m shutting it off. Real news doesn’t exist anymore because just telling the news as is to people is boring and doesn’t create this drama and excitement everyone needs today from tv. The media created a virtual drug that so many are feeding off wanting more and more.

Some of what they do it not report on important things.
Dude, that's actually a super important aspect here.

This is why people don't know what's going on.

Look at the Twitter files. The only network talking about it is fox. They are expected to with their conservative base.

Remember the good ole days when Cronkite would deliver the important news WITHOUT any personal commentary????

Turning Newsmen into celebrities is the undoing, they don't want to report news they want to be the news, and as whole stations get polarized to an ideological way of thinking it will just get worse..

Cronkite was still told what to say. Media has always been controlled by special interests and tycoons who use their media outlets to advance their pet causes.

Before there was TedTurner or Rupert Murdock there was Hearst. Fake news has existed since the invention of the printing press.

Who ever pays the most gets there story told as they want it told. Dems are willing to spend whatever it takes to win and when they do they take every penny out of our back pockets to make up for what they spent to win.

MSM went down the tube when they stopped reporting news and started to create news.
I think it was the movie "I, Tonya" where one of the characters was a reporter from "Hard Copy" and he explained that the show was about drama and gossip. basically what all news programs are now. A good joke, but true.
