Well, I stopped all national 'news' from being on my TV again. I stopped viewing all

[sinkingfeeling]

cable news, ABC, NBC, CBS, or PBS news before the 2016 election. I started ABC Nightly News after Biden was elected, but can't stand it again. Tonight's top story is how President Biden 'screwed up' on Ukraine yesterday.

I'm sick of it. Where were they during TFG's administration?

[PortTack]

1. I REFUSE to watch!!

[Tickle]

2. I said this on

another post . I thought he was fabulous yesterday and don’t quite understand why every station is trashing him

[sop]

6. They're trashing him precisely because he was thoughtful, in command of the facts and honest.

It doesn't fit the "Biden is a failure" narrative corporate media is currently pushing. They're busy blaming him for the defeat of the Voting Rights Act, while the GOP's racism and voter suppression efforts are ignored.

[dem4decades]

3. They all want to be responsible for Biden's undoing, not watching.

[badhair77]

4. Turned it off.

It was all about Biden’s gaffs. Enough.

[brooklynite]

5. Where did you learn about all the chaos and disorganization of Trump's Administration

And if you’re going to tell me you read about it here, then where did the people who posted things here get the details?

[sinkingfeeling]

7. I subscribe to Washington Post and read Daily KOS and

other online sites. I prefer to read and can easily stop reading when I run into bulls**t. I don't want to hear it.

[Carlitos Brigante]

10. What's this "reading" you speak of? That just sounds

crazy!

But seriously, to each their own. I just don't get the whole hate watching this cable news shit. The old alphabet networks are a little more "Who, what, when, where?...". Which is what I think news should be. I don't have much use for them either. like you said, there's always print media. BBC World Service does a decent job at separating their opinions from facts. NPR is also capable of doing that. But not always. It's also important to note which stories TV decides to hype up vs. completely ignoring.

[StClone]

26. It's a Commie, Socialist thingy-Read'n stuff makes great kindling

Ask the Texnazi's.

[Sherman A1]

8. Good, leave it off and never look back

foreign news sources are the best.

[bdamomma]

16. and

Free Speech TV, esp. Randi Rhodes.

[Budi]

9. They've been worthless to the support of our Nation since 2016.

With all the media outlets being purchased, produced & invested in by Foreign Conglomerates, Global Media moguls (Politico) & small bloggers climbing onto the profitabe American political messaging drama like TLDR News, there's no point in looking for fairness nor truth in reporting.
Especially with election season approaching.
It's all "Money & Media", & truth is the last ethic they'll ever consider.
Not when it affects their bottom line & a return on their investment.


They've rendered themselves a nemises to American Govt & our country.

Media is now run like a big old global criminal org, a mobbed up casino.

[USALiberal]

11. How can people not just deal with it?? Nt

[sinkingfeeling]

12. Because it's a total waste of time.

[USALiberal]

13. I guess I can just not freak out about it. Nt

[Budi]

14. It is. Media is now just a foreign owned global internat'l criminal org. A mobbed up casino. $$$$$

All of the foreign investors want a return on their money, & have no allegience to the United States of America.
They don't give 2 shits if we survive or die.
They will. $$$

[bdamomma]

15. Yup

it's a dump on President Biden. Freaking media. And that approval rating crap can go to hell.

President Biden is doing more in his first year than that orange wanna be mob boss.

[GoodRaisin]

17. "Where were they during the TFG admin?"

Normalizing TFG’s behavior.

[Stinky The Clown]

18. Add NBC to the mix. That toad Lester Hold and The Guthrie woman in the mornings

She was absolutely disrespectful of Kamala Harris.

Fuck them and fuck their access.

[Rebl2]

22. I wrote nbc

to complain about Guthrie. She would barely let the Vice President get two sentences out of her mouth when she interrupted her to argue with her or ask another question. I told nbc Guthrie was rude and an embarrassment to nbc. I normally like C. Melvin, but he wasn’t any better last week when he interviewed Vice President Harris.

[Rebl2]

19. Exactly!

[iemanja]

20. They severely criticized Trump throughout his presidency

They may be too harsh on Biden but pretending that the media wasn't critical of Trump is not accurate. They were repulsed by him. You'd think that would temper their attacks on Biden, but evidently not.

[ShazzieB]

29. I agree with this.

I also disagree with those who say that ALL TV news is garbage, a waste of time, etc. To me, that's a vast and flawed oversimplification.

But to each their own.

[BigmanPigman]

21. I change channels or turn it off when they start their BS

about Biden. I thought cable news was worse but now I'm not so sure. Some media companies are obviously making truckloads of $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ from taking this position. Fuck them! I refuse to watch their shitting on Biden.

[hadEnuf]

23. The same reporters that were treated like shit by Trump are now criticizing every word Biden says,

picking apart every phrase he uttered. Yet they actually tried to make sense of Trump's unhinged lunatic rantings when he was in office and the man could barely get out a coherent sentence.

Fuck all of the MSM. They will be the downfall of this country.

[spike jones]

24. I have not watched TV in over twenty years. n/t

[monkeyman1]

25. I get all my government by way government sites !! don't need media blow hard sites !

plus , ovta tv f^&k cable & direct tv & dish t !!

[roamer65]

27. I stream AlJazeera

Really good reporting. Very balanced.

[liberal N proud]

28. No broadcast news!

Can't stand it

[paleotn]

30. They did the same with Obama.

How many times did Obama have to "save his presidency" or recover from a "gaff". Wasn't just the reich, but also the MSM that went ape shit over a goddamn tan suit. In the end, it really didn't impact Obama's presidency all that much. Mainly because much of the American public can't remember past breakfast.

[MarcA]

31. M$M life blood is controversy and sensationalism.

It doesn't help democracy but Oligarchs approve.

[cilla4progress]

32. A

[harumph]

33. There is no fourth estate anymore.

It's a pleasure whore for Charles Koch.
