Thanks for posting this. It seems to me that journalists used to be relatively impartial reporters of the news, other than those specifically noted as columnists or commentators. Now it seems that most political "news" is shadowed by the agendas of either the reporter or the news service he or she works for. It's part of what leads to the divisiveness we see pervading the country. Add to that the small soundbites and impersonal conversations on social media, and it's a perfect storm of misunderstanding and lack of objective discourse.
