Who do you find reliable or at least not make your head hurt. CNN and MSNBC just took a big ratings hit due to all the false BS they portray. I find fox ok but I mainly watch the business news for stock info. For the past two years when I watched CNN it was 24/7 all the proof that Trump collided with Russia and how mueller would have everyone in the White House in handcuffsQuote:

What he actually said when he signed the bill was to the effect that the Democratic party just lost the south for a generation. Or fifty years or something like that. Turns out it's going to be longer than fifty years. Getting ten percent of the country to vote for you at the expense of the eighty odd percent white majority at the time doesn't seem to me like a smart political move. And it wasn't! It was the right and moral thing to do though.Quote:

Here are some actual facts on the whole thing. Graphs and everything. This is a good read:

Have to say speaking of cnn etc. I actually have come to the point where I don't mind Chris Cuomo at all. Couldn't stand him at first when show debuted but as far as 'fair' and substantive on that network he is apart from the others. On MSNBC maybe I can catch some of Williams but Giraffe neck and Chris Hayes forget about it. Fox can be some patronizing whory apple polishers..namely Hannity..but I'll watch Neil Cavuto and actually miss Bill O'Reilly.
Could not agree more. All media are liars on a scale not seen since the days of Hitler. they had nothing on Trump. What is not being reported that this also clears Putin. Let's remember it was Hillary Clinton who was attacking Putin. When it comes to lying Hillary Clinton is the Heavyweight Champion of the world. As I said before my beef with Fox is making the working class as some lazy piece of shit while rich are suffering. They can barely make it. And yes people believe it.Quote:

I think Cuomo is part of the problem. Looks like a typical case of nepotism and thus another cog in the machine. Stick an ordinary smart working man in there who is allowed to think for himself. Won't happen. Media driven discourse run by elites for elites. Wasn't it 2 month on a missing plane while the rest of the world actually vanished? Planks.
