I just paid for Time Magazine digital edition

Maybe I'm a sucker but with all the fake "news" since fRump's illicit take over, I feel like supporting real journalists who spend their days attempting to dig up the truth from around the world.

I scanned it and there was a great variety of stories with all the details the TV leaves out because it doesn't fit with the military industrial complex propaganda campaign.

Not sure who owns Time, but at least they're putting their names on each column.

It will still have lots of frump material, but hopefully, it will reveal what he's trying to conceal.

M$M handled themselves then, and before, I've had it only on about an hour total this past month, mostly to see if the world is ending. I have an internet radio, and I use that a lot, thousands of stations. I think you did a good thing.

Amazon is offering 6 months of the Post for free and it's $3.99 a month thereafter. I'm going to support the Washington Post and hope they can keep the US informed during the years ahead.
