During political season news is %100 all day political hacking - no news
It was not like that in the 80's, only political ADS played and very little political news - certainly not all day political lies. (note back then most things in USA were made in USA, and big companies had more influence than polititians in politics in many cases) "the dollar vote", and "dont buy if you dont want it"
Whether its' pro trump or pro hillary (esp pro hillary) all i see or hear is un-provable statements and news of someone beating the other (or numbers) without citing the sources (unprovable claims).
Today I heard morning NEWS claim Hillary had won in polls and there was no need to go to voting polls because she's sure to win. Can you beleive it? I suggest you don't.
Yesterday I heard pro-Trump night NEWS claim Trump number are rising.
Blatant all day lying. Not subjected to competition. Not subjected to viewer ratings. Never subjected to reality or fact finding. These people - the NEWS or cable companies - are way out of control, and way out of line living on political money.

Yes, it's nauseating. Stay away from the MSM, you'll never find an unbiased story from them.

No, I do not believe it. You should take off the tinfoil hat.

Not subjected to competition? That claim is bizarre.
Back in 2012, there was republican operative Dean Chambers who kept claiming that Nate Silver was skewing the pools so he created "UnSkewed Polls." Of course, his predictions end up being all wrong whereas Silver nailed it, state by state.

There have always been and always will be liars on all sides. You can still find the truth if you go look for it.

If you say this crap, then FFXU is biased. Just nothing but "lib" and all that other junk all day.

It has been since FOX News came on the scene, although Reagan was the one who started it all.

Who the hell watches any of the newscasts? Same old brainwashing over and over stuffed down everyone's throat until everyone is brain-dead and begins to believe it. No real news given of anything actually going on in the wide wide world. If I wanted to run my life on someone else's opinions of how I should run it, I would be in paradise here. However, I neither need nor want anything that the media has to offer. Out of sound, out of sight, and completely out of mind. I am never at a loss to know what to do without the spin-trips from the media. (Even the commercials are sometimes creative enough to be more interesting than the newscasts)!
