If the media were a teacher, they'd be fired for malpractice.

At one point, we had a fairness doctrine at one time, and we didn't have a ridiculous wingnut Monopoly on AM radio.
There have to be some standards. In the grand scheme of things, these airways belong to the American people.
There are standards and requirements that they serve the interest of the people.
His daily shitshows are NOT newsworthy, or imfomative. They're either an in-kind campaign donation, an infomercial, or the rantings of a sundowning man having a psychotic break.

You're entitled to demand what you want and not watch any channel that doesn't provide it.

Perhaps you should enter the cable news field and reach a level of authority to decide what SHOULD be covered.
