How Do You Feel Now About Mainstream News?

I can't say that it registered on me. Yes - I was alive at that time (1938) but I was 5 years old and was probably in my room playing with toy soldiers. Surely not with my ear to the radio. I believe that most of my memories were from later conversations in the family when I was a bit older.
 
Used to watch to be informed. Now watch to be entertained. Do my best to ignore the propaganda and social engineering but sometimes that is difficult, not to mention aggravating, frustrating etc..
 

The news media...especially the TV news...has become little more than a "business" whose primary purpose is to make money. The cable news networks have become little more than a venue for the "talking heads" to spout their various political agenda's. This past Winter, I timed the network evening news...ABC, NBC, CBS, and on average they gave 17 minutes of news, and 13 minutes of commercials...mostly that Ask your Doctor Crap. Then, there are those who rely on Facebook and Twitter for their news....it's no wonder that so many of our people are losing touch with reality.

Exactly. Several years ago, I read Bernard Goldberg's two books, "Bias" and "Arrogance" and he opened my eyes to just how extremely leftist the so-called main stream media truly are. Does anyone else remember why Dan Rather was fired/pushed out ?

TV "news" networks are filled with political propaganda and social engineering.

Amen to that.
