US just finished dead last among 46 countries in media trust

Hello K:

"MEDIA", huh??

Of course, that includes right wing talk radio that DOMINATES the flyover states, right??? Or the most watched cable news network on the air, amirite???

I spose when you add those in, NOBODY would trust our media.

Hello High:

Of course, I do.. Rush Limprod and I go back a long way.. He was very libertarian back in the 80's. Then he got caught using drugs, and turned into your regular, run of the mill, right wing drug warrior..

So, I said to myself, that's FUCKED UP.

And, yes.. I watch Hannity come down HARD on mask wearing, only to have him switch gears a couple nights ago.

So, I said to myself, that's FUCKED UP.

If they get back to Dr. Suess and Mr. Potato Head, I'll watch again.. I'm VERY interested in that.

But, nuff about me.. You're a consumer of right wing radio, aren't you?? Are they still promoting the BIG LIE?? Of course, they are.

So, I say to myself.. That's FUCKED UP..

Today you are you!

That is truer than true!

There is no one alive who is you-er than you!

A person's a person, no matter how small.

Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot,

nothing is going to get better.

It's not.

Sure does. But right wingers aren't like left wingers. Most of us don't trust Fox News either. We just find it more trustworthy than left wing media, and that's no compliment, trust me.

Over 90% of the mainstream press is left wing, and in the poll, Fox News actually brings the average up sadly.

Hello W:

There ya go with words again.. You have a hard time understanding 'em... I dunno why.. They're just words

Pregnant is one of those words. It's easy.. You either ARE or you're NOT... There ain't no in between.. Trustworthy is another one of those words.. You either TRUST someone, or you don't.. There ain't no middle ground.

To BUY into the FOX News bullshit because they don't lie to you ALL the time, is STUPID, STUPID, STUPID..

It's long since been worldwide common knowledge that America does not have a free press or impartial broadcasting corporations.

The mainstream media publishers and broadcasters such as C.N.N. The Washington Post and the New York times are all in bed with the Democrats.

This blatant and unashamed left-wing media bias is viewed by the rest of the free world with extreme disapproval and a certain element of dread.

TUT TUT TUT, was that really the best you could do?

But, I guess all things considered it wasn't bad for a drug addicted Bongo.

What's you itinerary for the day after your early morning ''fix''?

A spot of mugging, looting, meeting up with your drug supplier or checking your text messages for the nearest recreational rioting venue?

BONGO IS AS BONGO DOES.

The mainstream media publishers and broadcasters such as Fox news, Glen Beck, Newsmax....and yes I'll say it again, Fox news... are all in bed with the Republicans.

This blatant and unashamed right-wing media bias is viewed by the rest of the free world with extreme disapproval and a certain element of dread.

Try to find the middle ground news sources. Sure some will have a little leaning to either side but the level of extreme alarmist news will blessedly be smaller.

Unbiased media has never really existed in the US: even if there is a centrist publication, it would be biased towards the centre over any other political affiliation.

News sites like CNN, New York Times and MSNBC are left-wing biased, while other news sites like Fox News, Breitbart and NewsMax are right-wing biased. These are two political affiliations pulling in opposite directions, so the average person is confused and not sure which way to lean. Anyway, when I say that news sites are "left-wing biased" or "right-wing biased" I am not saying they necessarily distort the facts, although some do. There are many other ways to influence left vs right bias in a news outlet, such as story selection (choosing news stories which favour a certain political agenda).
