Don't worry, it isn't news and hasn't been for 30 years. It's soma. It's "here's the DJIA, so that's the economy, bend over" and "here's our pundits screeching far right vs center-right talking points, those are the parameters of legitimate political debate." The irritainment industry doesn't serve anybody but advertisers and the status quo, so people dropping out of it is healthy. And that goes for the Big Three, Fox, MSNBC, Reuters, Ass Press, the Beeb... the lot.
For once, Hovey, we are very temporarily in the same boat, or anyway strapped to the back of the same frog. Now don't mistake me: you sociopathic fucks started this. You created a fake news network to spoonfeed your lofo derps so real journalism could never take down a Tricky Dick again. It's your fault and not to your credit that somebody stole your gimmick.
But we now find ourselves temporary allies, and since you, god bless you, actually still somehow believe your "conservative" bullshit despite the last 30 years exposure of it as toilet tissue, and since you are rightfully offended nothing -- and I mean nothing -- on the airwaves reflects those values, then we can be if not friends at least enemies with common purpose like FDR and Uncle Joe.
The news media now is the rightwing fascism of Fox and OANN vs the neutered center-right monetization of the reaction against that fascism of everybody else. So let's dynamite the whole thing together and fight over the bloody scraps, mmmkay?
