Can't do it anymore. I rarely watch CNN or MSNBC. Stopped watching

[sinkingfeeling]

both ABC morning and evening news about 6 weeks ago and switched to CBS. As of this morning, I'm avoiding all so-called news until Nov. 9. I'll have to get the weather from my phone and forego local events.
I'm 68 and have never seen an election like this. The country's come undone.

2. Your username suits your pessimistic worldview

Hillary is going to win and it isn't going to be especially close.

[MADem]

4. I agree that HRC is going to win, but no need to get personal with other DUers. nt

8. Sorry, just getting tired of all the pearl-clutching negativity

The other side never wets their pants like this, even when they are down 10 points.

[Ace Rothstein]

9. The other side is delusional.

They don't deal in facts.

[MADem]

12. I understand how you feel.

We need to try real hard to not turn on one another, though--especially those of us who have been around for awhile.

The other side feels free to lie and call our candidate the 'c' word--they're beneath contempt.

6. Didn't say that I thought Hillary would lose. I can't stand the media feeding frenzy.

[Coyotl]

3. CBS Obama live right now.

[redstateblues]

5. I stopped watching. It will help your attitude!

[sinkingfeeling]

7. Bring back Walter Cronkite.

10. I brought him up this morning

Went for a walk with my late 30's neighbor, I am 60.

She was talking about NPR and we got into conversation about when news changed when they were forced to make a profit and to do so started opinion with little fact.

I told her what news was like when i was young, just the facts, so refreshing and they sent their own people over to find out the facts.

11. bbc is worth watching

And they actually do reporting on serious things going around in the world.

[Nay]

13. I stopped watching any political stuff many, many years ago. I just can't stand it

anymore. I read here and a couple of other places and that's it. This country has indeed come undone.

[sarcasmo]

14. Raises my blood pressure, can't watch talking heads.

[Patiod]

16. I'm off Tweetie, but still watching Rachel and Lawrence O'Donnell

But mostly just listening to podcasts about old movies and true crime. Sad that it's more relaxing to listen to a story about someone who just disappears than it is to listen to regular news.
