and I used to think they were just the "corporate press" but there's a LOT of money to be made telling the truth about those bastards and they only ever prop them up, and pull down the Democrats.

They are NOT liberal, or even left leaning...they are NOT just "in it for the money"...they are in it to prop up one side while pulling down the other, and it is high time we stop giving them the attention they seek.

It is not news, it is mere entertainment and that is one of the big differences from the old days because of both the mass media's vested interests, (Oh, are they objective?) and a twenty-four-hour news cycle.

It used to be that the entertainment went on between the news as the various kinds of TV shows, not during it.

It bleeds and leads. It stirs, it whirs. It is what has been called: The Spectacle. I think it also may be an attempt to subvert reason and go for the reactive, lizard brain. That even happens when we react to the absurdity of The Spectacle they are providing. "They did what? They said WHAT?"
