Fast food media
Is anyone calling out the corporate media outlets for what they are? Fast food media. Filling. Fattening. Tasty and exciting. But no nutritional value. Nothing to sustain good health. Unhealthy additives. And the number one contributor to our deteriorating way of life.

Just as nutritious food supports our physical health; the honest, valuable information of a free press keeps us mentally healthy by keeping us alert to our world.


So call it what it is --- fast food media. Keep calling it that until everyone associates corporate media with the destruction of health brought on by too much fast food.

1. That's a great analogy. I have at times called it the drive by media, but
like this one better. Fits most of the cases for what passes as 'news' these days.

2. We all know now what fast food
is doing to our health.

Use this term as much as you can. I think it will help to educate.
