1. I watched some of my local news this morning.

I had to go stay in a hotel last night because my neighborhood had no power (long story). So I went to the breakfast this morning at the hotel and they had the local news on.

1/2 hour broadcast. They spent 30 seconds on Trump. Another 30 seconds on GAZA. Then they spent fucking 15 minutes talking about stupid iPhone features, and at least 5 minutes talking about local weather. Then they had the nerve to say in a commercial during the break that it's important where Americans choose to get their news and information from.

American news media is complicit. No wonder people are so uninformed.
