Watch CBS news tonight around 6 with Nora O’Donnell that is the first thing out of her mouth every night! Talk about hype she was a real journalist at one time now she snipes like the rest of the clowns and pushes the drama on her show. She replace Jeff Glor who was 10X better at delivering the news.

Everything in the news is breaking news even on Fox. At one time, breaking news really meant something new that was important.

Our media does NOT respect us or take their job seriously. They think they can whizz on our boots and tell us its raining. My worry is that if we dont fix this now it will be 10 times harder for our children and grandchildren.

Gets old seeing news on TV you knew two days to two months ago before they get around to it.

So I haven't watched in years

Yes, "breaking news" now means it happened sometime in the past 7 days.

"Breaking news" means here is our spin on what we want you to know about.

That goes right down to even a simple weather report. Remember when we had cold snaps. Don't have those anymore as they have been replaced by things like Polar blasts and arctic vortexes .... all BS in my book. Stopped watching that carp a while ago.

They respect who is paying them and it isn't us or for our benefit.

Okie Farmer you might be a nicer guy than I am. I'm ready and willing to accuse them of trying to tell us how to think. Cheeto man bad, white people are all bigots, people of color can't live the American dream and we need to tell them who to vote for.

It's a load of BS if I've ever seen one.

Nailed it. ^^ "Breaks his silence...", "Shocking images...", "Breaking news...", "This just in..." and other overly dramatized catch phrases are way over used these days. Communication companies have studied and tailored their broadcasts to appeal to emotions and elicit drama. Twitter, freaking Twitter, is often used as a "source" for stories these days. Gone are the days where a real journalist would ask tough, but not "gotcha", questions, follow up on the story, get opposing viewpoints, verify facts, etc.

Today our media is 90% pablum, skewed and slanted to fit a preferred narrative or the agenda of the presenter.

And sadly we all know family and friends that this crap tactic works on. I think I have blocked more friends and family on Facebook than total strangers. They just loose their minds watching the 24 hour news.

Kelly O'Donnell is twice as good of a reporter, but not particularly good looking. Nora is twice as good looking, but not particularly good as a reporter.

Leftlane they're the propaganda arm of the bunch that is behind Pelosi and the rest of the democrat's, Trump being elected was a serious setback for their plans.
