subjective opinions during news telecasts? Money? Job security? Opportunity? Because they can?
Because American Idiots eat it up with a spoon?

5. While waiting for protest coverage on CS2 this morning |

I saw Ted Koppell speaking about this very thing. He said when journalists try to put together thoughtful and insightful news pieces, people tune out in the millions.
FOX has succeeded in dumbing down the nation.

7. Because the media no longer reports the news, it provides infotainment |
|
and propaganda as dictated by their corporate owners.
