Deep dive? Not the MSM.

Trying no be informed by MSM is like trying to learn to swim in two inches of puddle water. No can do. One must look for deeper pools of information not polluted by billionaires’ money.

No big money behind what they are saying. Also, independent journalists will talk in depth (an hr or more) about a subject - when cable will have a 3 minute clip.

As a reader, I don't listen or view podcasts or videos as much as I read & I wonder why we don't put AI to work transcribing instead of making fake pictures of birds for Facebook.
