A Rant - Just Ignore Me...At dinner tonite, my wife and I were watching the news....local news but also international
Almost every story was unbalanced with many important facts not mentioned. "News" in today's day and age is NOT news but propaganda. It is no wonder that people are so divided - it is aided and abetted by the media.
Does this have any relevance to SU?
Actually I think so.
We have been discussing here "the bird issue". In the absence of balanced/investigative reporting, the regulators have no choice but to investigate a non issue.
In the US, they just fired Tucker Carlson and Don Lemmon. Their combined annual salary was 40 million!! YEP...40 MILLION. Were they worth that amount ? Dunno but I have my opinion. If their salary was even say 20 million, that would give their respective networks the money to pay many lower paid investigative reporters to actually accurately inform people about the true facts.
Gonna happen?
NOT A CHANCE!!
