For good or ill, however, the First Amendment applies to even the more corrupt, biased journalism. Hence, it protects MSNBC as much as it protected the THEN honorable NYT when it published the Pentagon Papers.

Convincing some people that most of the US news, even MSNBC is totally corporate without any 'fairness' of old is a real challenge so I don't bother much anymore. You can only do so much with some, even intelligent ones..

(41,055 posts)personal contacts that I've brought up a few things with, lightly. But no go, don't want to believe or know, are what I'd call lifelong liberals and far, far from affluent. Just not up to speed and not worth it.
OTOH we recently met a few young folks who are surprising enlightened, total Sanders supporters, one a precinct captain. That was a blast and gave us a lot of joy and hope.

(41,055 posts)not have anyone to sell out to or be vulnerable to brainwashing.. When I learned the truth about the Third Way and all I was pissed, livid. Someone wouldn't have had to tell me twice or be rebuffed. No way. I hate deceit, traitors and betrayal, nothing worse. Think I mentioned that, runs in the family, very strong.
