Just who (whom) do we trust? With newspapers owned by hedge funds and local news outlets depending on police reports, where are the old fashioned reporters of yesteryear? It is why I am so grateful for Laurence O'Donnell. He makes so much sense.

I also respect Rachel Maddow and Ali Velshi. AND, thank you DU.
