I guess I lied. Came back to grade and my daughter had a meeting on the computer, so I went back out again. Finally, got to grade y’all. Great job, everyone!

Driveby media always chases
The objects that are luminous
Reality doesn’t matter at all-
That info must be numinous

Checking facts is never done
They’re too liberal and lazy
Instead they have a séance
And publish something crazy

They chase after things like
Fake scandal or even a curse
The more they publish lies
They look insane and worse

Indeed.

Whosever diggeth the pit
Shall fall into it...Bob Marley

They are agenda driven gossip mongers substituting their own biases for news. Thus we have #fakenews. A++++ Excellent poem!
