10. You mean like CNN, Fox, NBC, CBS, ABC, etc?

There is a very small group of people who make a living off of these shows. They do little else. They're full-time "experts" who make the rounds from show to show.

That said, yes, I find them all to be a load of crap. Fortunately, Fox "News" viewers still think they're being told the truth. It makes it easier to point out the true idiots.
