    I (think) I understand. When you say sensationalim what comes to mind are a few youtubers I watch sometimes is ROF Ring of Fire the Other is David Pakman.


    All of their titles- tell the story

    Tucker Carlson's Dumbest Guest Ever
    Republican Senator crumbles
    Trump Gives the Dumbest speech ever.


    Headlines like those is what comes to mind when I try to put the word sensationalism with media.

    One doesn't need to watch a minute to know these two guys are pro-liberal, anti conservative.
    One doesn't need to read a single sentence on FOX's website to know they have a position they are pushing as their titles are just as condemning as the progressives.

    Makes it hard for me to take either side seriously.

    Call the article Tucker Carlson's recent speech......and then let me decide if it was the dumbest ever.
    All's lost! Everything's going to shit!

    Actually Slim, when I refer to "sensationalism" I'm mostly referring to the bending and stretching of actual news to create undue panic or unrest in people. Something along the lines of......

    "New Medical Study Reveals that the COVID-19 Vaccine Makes You Grow a 3rd Arm After Two Years!!"

    or...

    "Deep Cover Sting Operation Reveals Joe Biden is Actually a Member of an International Cartel Which Intends to Annex Mexico as the 51st State... Opening the Border for Limitless Drug Flow!!"

    or even...

    "Research Has Shown that Excessive Use of Facemasks Against COVID-19 Causes Cancer!!"



    Trump and His Minions® don't need sensationalism.

    They come with their own circus tent.
