32. It's just especially frustrating in San Diego where the rightwing controls all the major media

To the extent that these "well coiffed" news actors/actresses feel so secure that they frequently pepper their newscasts with the snide personal asides on everything from Occupy San Diego to the minimum wage hike.(voted through by our Democratic City Council). Barbara Lee Edwards (our local CBS) openly denounced graffiti ( "murderer" written across an Amer Sniper billboard in LA) it was just par for the course here. Not only that local CBS programmed this prattle of a story into our evening news, but that this newscaster felt ok just chiming in with her own moral outrage.

It happens here all the time on our local news & it's really disgusting. Amazingly San Diego is a demographically left leaning city, but
rightwing controls all the major newspapers, internet feeds and tv stations. Very frustrating.
