No such thing as: Americanism.

Speaking of old media? I have a old alarm/radio clock by my bed. When laying down to relax, I turn it on and listen to local talk shows on the A.M ban. A.M radio is dominated by Conservative talk shows. the fact that nobody listens to the radio anymore unless you are part of a certain demographic. which is less 7% of the population. What burns my bacon is the half-truths and outright lies they broadcast.
the message is usually typical think tank talking points and phrases they expound. One phrase they usually is : American Exceptional ism. I researched this phrase and this my findings
