    In my opinion, if you are working in the media right now, especially what we refer to as mainstream media, you have a tough job. About the only certainty is that someone will be publicly attacking you and questioning your motives. If you report those stories, you're accused of sensationalizing events to attract clicks, or harboring a hidden agenda in the police reform debate. If you don't cover them enough (whatever that is), you're accused of ignoring important community developments, or of harboring a hidden agenda in the police reform debate.

          I'm gonna have to stop you on this. There *is* still real journalism being done at the local AND national level.

          The problem is that the newstainment hosts are louder and, as you have correctly pointed out, profitable.

          Editorials, opinions, press releases submitted as news,, and Newstainment need to be clearly marked as separate from the actual journalism.

                Of course there is real journalism, but you won't find it on a large scale platform for the same reasons you won't find a good book on the best seller list.

                    • It is actually even better than that because of how it is worded:

                      "I had a black friend. I liked her and I think she liked me, too. But now she is hostile and unpleasant. I am sure I didn't do anything to her, except be white. Is that what teachers and our political leaders really want for our society? Divide us because of our skin color? #CRT"

                      So she had A Black friend who she isn't sure liked her but thinks they did. Said friend is now hostile to her but she isn't sure why so she assumes it is cause she is White. Somehow that is because of CRT...

                      The best is the replies, where people find old tweets that might have offended her one Black Friend. But then this happened:

                              That's only cuz there's no prayer in skools!!!

                              Idiocracy reigns in all red states. Kick them out. They can make common cause with the Islamic theocracies. They're the same people, just different choice of fantasy adventure.
