I am human... allegedly. Just a social science teacher dealing with the madness. My politics match a Susan Vega song. Other than that mostly here for Everton and Marvel comics. he/him

You can't say facts matter, then dedicate your space to a shouting match about said facts. CNN lets example Scott Jennings claim Biden has dementia, but when someone says the same about Trump he yells at them for not being a doctor. This passing for news analysis makes objective truth subjective.

For me as a regular news consumer, the issue with CNN et al., is mostly two things. One is the lack of depth and complexity of issues where a small summary is provided, the second is everything is put through a lense partisan actors discussing the issue in a whataboutism matter.

I have to agree heavily with the too DC/NYC focus. When California had the organized effort to recall our Governor that barely was covered on CNN, but the NYC mayor's race dominated coverage.

You have a 24 hour news network, that in reality I can usually get all the "news" of the day in 30 min.

One thing I think about often, will Never Trump Republicans ever feel home again in the GOP or will we end up with realigned parties with perhaps a centrist/technocrat Democratic party. Part of me would honestly trade off the fringe of my party for the sane ex-Republicans.

It is amazing how that was weaponized against the left, when Trump was pals with Epstein.
