Sing a sad, sad song

[PJMcK]

3. Right on!

The media ALWAYS pushes the "popular" stories but NEVER the consequential ones.

Trump is a master at deflection and the MSM ALWAYS falls for it because of their corporate overlords.

You know why Walter Cronkite, Huntley & Brinkley, Peter Jennings and Edward R. Murrow were such great newsmen? It's because their news division were independent of corporate overseers. They had the freedom and the motivation to tell the truth to the American people.

But as all things in the U.S., corporations bought and now control the media and they do not want controversies messing with their profits. Keep the viewers happy and distracted and the corporate profits will increase.

George Clooney is currently on Broadway in a play called, "Good Luck And Good Night" which is based on Edward R. Murrow's career. if anyone is in NYC, consider seeing the play. It is brilliant, well-written, terrifically acted and harkens back to another better time in news broadcasting.
