TV “news” makes money the same way sitcoms do, they sell your eyes to advertisers. They have no need to inform, or to believe the things they are saying, they only need you to stay tuned through this word from their sponsors. When their research says their viewing demographic believes X then they push X, not because X is true, not because they think X has meaning, but because that’s what their viewers want to see, which gets them to watch commercials, which makes them money.
It would be fair to say Special Report is fair and balanced. The rest of the shows are 100% commentary. Lies go with it. Why fair and balanced? That’s the news hour. They can’t get away with lies. The fact that they said it way back to Bret Hume was the challenge. They called out other networks on their bs. When they find a leftie brave enough to go on they pounce on him/her. That’s fair when the facts get stretched.
That Gutfeld. Not funny enough. It will go the way of Kruthhammer/O’rielly. Greta Sustern got out at the right time.
