        Most people that watch news do it for sport. Un-informed voters interested in making a fair choice explore other options.

        Groupthink amongst journalists today for fear of ostracism outweighs facts, altruism and honesty. PC heresy.

        You’re absolutely right. Until the sheeple stop taking MSMs opinions as fact, & demand factual reporting, nothing changes.

        But need to differentiate fact from opinion. Way too many today think if they saw it on TV, it's the truth.

        That is, inarguably, the way that it *should* be. News media should deliver facts. (cont) http://tl.gd/nmnjf8
