One gigantic WTF moment was the time before the election when MSNBC cut off a live speech by Bernie Sanders to go to a speech that orange boy was about to start. Then all that viewers could see was an empty podium for about half an hour.
Ever since, I have that people I trusted just lied to me for no good reason. I used to tune in every evening to watch Chris (Hayes, NOT Matthews), Rachel, and Lawrence (first name basis in my house), but now I can't even stand to turn to that channel. I get my US news from The Guardian and the BBC. American "news" is nothing but propaganda in one form or another.
