I would watch Brian Williams, but he's gone.

I used to watch three or four hours a day.

I find that I can get NEWS, not opinions, straight up on twitter.

I'm done with opinions.

Best news show on TV. It helps that she has 2 hours, but she gets great guests and asks them good questions to get information from them.

That was it.

They normalized and gave us trump.

MSNBC included.

I stopped giving them my time.

I cant control how the country votes. No point in wallowing in polls.

Just read Reuters, France24 and AlJazeera and you will know all there is to know.

Without the clickbait, adbait or filters...

And then during the commercial break we get 2 minute long mini-informercials for depressing Pharma ads.

but if I could only choose one show that ever referenced news or politics in any way it would be Colbert.

And I would still be 100 times more informed than the average Fox viewer.

because I want to see if anything different has occurred over night. I go back and forth from there to John and Brianna on CNN. Plus they both snag lots of good guests.

I like Nicole later in the day, also Lawrence and Anderson.
I miss Brian late night.
