About half of us in this country think the main stream media are biased.

Many of us wish that we would hear and read just the "hard news" and not an interpretation or an opinion of what happened.

The way journalism is taught in college has had a filter down effect. Many people will turn off the evening news because of obvious bias from all three news networks. (NBC, ABC and CBS) I was switching to David Muir away from NBC because for awhile the line up and the presentation was fairer (to me) but then a couple of months ago that changed.

It is very hard to find and absorb what is really going on because we are being exposed to a biased menu which is just fine for about half of this country.

That is my opinion. I am glad I live here in The Villages. I like how the majority of people think. They are old and wise.

Fewer Americans rely on TV news; what type they watch varies by who they are
