"Liberal" MSNBC asking ExxonMobil board member if Tillerson is a good choice.

Not surprisingly, Bill George, now head of Medtronics, says Tillerson is a "tough negotiator" and will never do anything to favor ExxonMobil. He's only looking out for America.

I had to check to make sure I was not watching Fox "News."

But I still have internet, and MSNBC has an "International" version which streams online. It's either that or CBSN, which is pretty pathetic. I'm still a news junkie.

Now I'm listening to music. But I don't agree with those who say they don't want to hear any news reports or anything from the mainstream media. I don't have to agree with what they're saying, but I think it is a responsibility to know what they're saying.
