I think I hate the corporate media even more now
than ever, and I didn't think that was possible after the last eight plus years.

1. Turn 'em off
Really, it's just a habit. You won't miss them as much as you think you will.

It's blissful, not being lied to by omission.

I switched off in 2004, found I could get more real news from Simpson's reruns that were on at the same hour.

4. that wasn't my point really
I'm not a captive. I watch just enough to marginally keep up on the spin. I get my real news elsewhere.

2. You're far from alone. The silver lining is that they have lost all CLOUT and INTEGRITY.
The Average American does NOT trust any of these Corporate loving pseudo-journalistic pundits within the M$M.

They've been neutered. We need to quickly break apart the M$M monopoly as soon as they start losing BIG loads of money DUE to their shitty programming and staffing decisions. That time should come soon. :evilgrin:
