Do you have hope that if that actually happens at Fox, CNN, MSNBC and the rest of the degenerate "news reporters", meaning "commentators" actually...that the pool of ethical "journalists" is so extensive that all these networks will be able to replace them with ethical people ? Meaning, individuals NOT willing to say anything for "ratings" ? Would it be helpful to shut down ALL media in this country..nooooo ! So what is the answer ? All sides have to be represented or.... we become our worst nightmare, Cuba, China, etc.

There are three things fox cannot hide one is lies, if not for the light here would be no shadow, They should not enter the forest if they fear leaves ( law suits).

I certainly agree with this post, not focusing on any one of these "media stars" like Carson, Como, Lemon, etc. but puzzling when you read the comments like "thank God", and "it's about time" on any of their firings or departures. I have a few on every network I don't care for AT ALL, but if they leave or are "fired", is of no concern to me. I am able to just not watch them if I chose. I often like to watch those I don't care for personally from time to time ! I don't like to see and hear only what one particular person's, network's, or source's interpretation of an event or story is. My #1 dislike of all is when a politician gives a major speech, or when the "so called debates" are presented, and each network then EXPLAINS TO ME what each speaker said !!! That is the ultimate disingenuous behavior. Fine if a media person wants to come on and say to the audience: "this is what I got from the debates tonight", but no, they invariably say: "This is what YOU need to get from tonight's debate". Shows VERY LITTLE trust in our educational system to think those who complete just the minimum free education of 12 years, can not even process ideas and concepts put forth in a speech ??? That they need an interpreter to tell them what they should discern from a speech or debate ?

Welcome to George Orwell's 1984..we are living in an upside down world. Media has become what we should fear.

Even to understand the word—doublethink—involved the use of doublethink.” Four examples of doublethink used throughout 1984 include the slogans: War is Peace, Freedom is Slavery, Ignorance is Strength, and 2 + 2 = 5. Memory hole: a small chute leading to a large incinerator.

They all lie all of the time. The top guy in the ratings took the fall. Think Murdoch has dementia.

Perhaps Fox and CNN will get to just reporting the news. Nah, that won’t happen.

Free Press
 

We can laugh, agree, disagree or agree to disagree all we want but a free press is absolutely necessary for a free society. In the United States, freedom of the press is protected by the First Amendment.

Just as long as the "correct" pronouns are used...

How did Carlson "disrespect women"?

The Young Turks? Yes, they lie... All the time...

If Tucker were to talk about checkers, it would likely be checkers in Moscow. He had a passion for that part of the world.

Tuckums had one very HUMOROUS on-air WEAKNESS that was amazingly strange for a TV personality that had made it as far as he had........he could lie WITH EASE without blinking an eye. BUT, he could NOT come close to FABRICATING an AUTHENTIC laugh. He sounded like a donkey with throat cancer when he tried to fake his STUPID laugh.

He surely had love for totalitarians/authoritarians!!!!!!!

That is quite humorous.

They DO tend to disrespect women and they sing the praises of only one ethnic group.

Chris Cuomo was advising his brother which was a CNN no no. Toobin was masterbating on a ZOOM call. Lauer, guilty as charged.

Yes, ad hominem attacks certainly add to your argument...

You mean when "the rich" actually paid LESS in taxes than they do now?

Ooof my parents watch CNN all day. They don't really pay attention to it, but it's always in the background, volume up. I like CNN just about as much as I like Fox. Which is to say - not at all. I also don't like news "shows" of any kind. They're all designed to push a political agenda, whether right or left. It's pretty disgusting to see it. I'd rather ignore a soccer game at the bar, than ignore a news "commentator" discussing the latest election scandal.

When I want to watch news, I watch the actual news on the networks. Y'know, the "live at 5" news, where they tell you "this happened. That happened. This other thing happened. Here's the weather forecast. Here's a fluff piece about a dog who rescued a 4-year-old boy. See you all tomorrow for more news, live at 5."

Or I'll read a reuters or AP feed. I get my court/bill-voting/congress/senate hearing stuff from CSPAN, which just sets a video stream down in the back of the room and live-streams it without any commentary at all.

I don't like it when paid front-men try to instruct me how to feel about what I'm seeing. It's condescending and implies that you are too stupid to make your own decisions about the topic.

So I avoid watching any of those types of "reports," no matter where they come from.

In the pre internet days, I usually had CNN Headline News on most of the day. I could watch Lynne Russell for hours.:D
