Our CBC is covering live Biden's meeting with the PM of Spain for the NATO summit but not the US stations, what is wrong with this picture?

(8,817 posts)Over 80+% of Mainstream media in the U.S. is owned by Republicans. Their power has been gaining steam since the Reagan Years with HWBush/Cheney getting rid of the Fairness Doctrine. That, and the Citizens United being approved by the USSC.

(47,419 posts)the U.S. media proves that they can only handle one story at a time. 24 hour news stations that regurgitate the same story all day long. Then they bring in experts and contributors to comment on the story apparently to see how many ways they can report on one story.
God help us if a major celebrity dies - then the entire world comes to a standstill, sometimes for several days. A tabloid mentality in an ever changing and increasingly dangerous world.

(10,051 posts)because you seemed to have a problem with that and perhaps you did not understand that I am Canadian. It is not me that is irate. And it was at least an hour and half before the hearings.

(603 posts)as they can..so why don't you take a midol and calm down. oh in case you are wondering read myquote at the bomm that should tell you something

(10,051 posts)I think you should keep your opinions of me to yourself. You want to comment fine but you have no reason to insult me at all, and we all wonder what is wrong, it is these types of attitudes. I was not hysterical or angry when I wrote this OP, so you are way off base in this comment. It is also very misogynistic.
