Fuck them all. The propagandists who put their own politics above human life and the 4th Estate princes of truth and beauty who never saw a fact they couldn't massage into more likes on the web and who presume to talk down to the rest of us rather than speak to us as intelligent equals. Of course some of them can't parse the choices involving food, water and hope for the future. I say let them cover weather, fashion, and sports and keep their hair the hell out of the news.
