“I doubt we ever see another President like Trump.He is one of the greatest and not even two years in.”

If Teddy Roosevelt were alive today, I think he would handle the media in exactly the same way.

The downside is that FB is now censoring everything more interesting than pablum.

Facebook should censor their own Sponsored ads which appear in your feed every couple of posts. Why should I have to endure an onslaught of crap posts?

Funny thing is last week I had a couple hours to kill at DFW Airport in Texas.

And I watched CNN and saw some great special interest shows around a travel theme. It was damn good television.

So CNN as a network has the talent to do good work.

I’m confident AT&T will make a management change after the mid-terms and some changes will be made to programming.

It’s becoming a financial necessity for them.
