So you didn't read what I wrote about Anderson Cooper interviewing Trump... and apparently you didn't see what he did that I described because you didn't watch that interview apparently...and yet you can still come to the conclusion that what I am saying is "laughable" even though I am only telling you what I watched?
Weird to me how people process things and come up with their conclusions. To me it's black and white what the media is doing. To you, it's just "business as usual" by the media.
In the end...BOTH of our viewpoints show that our media is doing a disservice to our society by not reporting the news and instead trying to shape events.
As I said earlier, a free press is essential to a democracy.
What we have now (and have had for a long time as I also pointed out) is a press that does not do any investigative reporting, but instead takes the daily handout from the White House press room and reports it as gospel.
With a press like we have now...the entire Watergate scandal would have never happened and Pres. Nixon would have never resigned. There would have been no Vietnam war protests.
In other words...exactly the way the federal govt. wants it to be.
