i don't get it. it does surprise me, maybe that just proves that at age 61, i am still hopelessly naive. but it is unconscionable.

(6,587 posts)no longer about reporting news like those days of Cronkite, Huntley & Brinkley, it is more like an infomercial anymore, all about the bottom dollar.
You can see how important the elections are for them anymore which is why we are almost in a perpetual campaign mode these days with millions in advertising.
They only want to do reporting on almost what they can do in a sound bite & what is easier.
The one thing however I do not get is the fact that Dems do not fight back really. Just like this Comey thing, I am sick & tired of them as well as everyone else saying they know Comey & he has never shown partisan actions, has integrity. They need to call things as they are & this latest past 15 year drop they made proves it.

(13,305 posts)..is that Trump is advocating going hard on Mexico and China. The number of companies and the rich people that run them who depend on normalized relationships with both countries would make me think they would be scared shitless of a Trump presidency and what it would do to their money.
Then again, I would also think that companies would want universal healthcare so they could keep more of their profits and not have to spend it on benefits. But again that would mean that they might have to pay slightly more in taxes so I guess I can never underestimate their stupidity.

(3,284 posts)I know several people say, "Don't watch MSM." That's fine for calming yourself, but it doesn't give you an accurate representation of the spin most people get.
Most people do watch MSM, and those people vote, too. The media needs to be more accountable. I've seen reporters and journalists argue that it's not their job to play 'morality police', but they also refuse to acknowledge the megaphone they have and the huge responsibility that comes with it.

(21,758 posts)1) Is it obvious who the media supports yet?
2) Why aren't Hillary surrogates just flooding cable news shows? Every time I try to watch, there is another Trump surrogate being interviewed.

(3,284 posts)supposedly the media does this for ratings, right?
How on earth is there anyone out there who's not bored to death by Hillary's emails?!

(6,587 posts)"Hillary" & the entire thing has been highlighted by Chaffetz & their investigations on her. Taxes are boring too & even more complex & harder to report on in a way that people can understand I guess but regardless to be a fair media you report on it all & especially something as important on this issue.
