The statement blaming the news for giving facts is ludicrious.
If you don't agree with certain commentators, then do not watch them...they are NOT giving you news and having an agenda.
Maddox, Hannity for example do not even pretend to give you news. They have an agenda.
We seem to have lost the simple art of reading, investigating and insuring we know both sides before making up our mind.
And may I add. The major networks do not deal in fake news, the main papers do not deal with fake news.
The Russian perfection of fake news is something, certain Americans for whatever reason want to embrace.

Hannity is NOT news. Never claimed to be news. I think that many confuse commentary with news. Most of evening to night FOX cable is commentary, not news. Half of the day is dedicated to talk shows and commentary.
I also believe that many do not realize that most news stations, including FOX utilize AP and Reuters news feeds. The reason some of the main stream news media do not broadcast some news reports is because a lot of it can be perverted into a political issues.
Where the networks get into trouble is when they try to put a political spin on news. When they insert their opinion, the often get into trouble by warping the facts by their opinion.
