Media is sooooo stupid...and we have to listen to it.
You are BOTH right AND wrong..
Yes the “media” is S00000 stupid.
No...we DO NOT have to listen to it.
Real “news” is avaailable from many sources, including the one you are reading now. To listen solely to the “media” is to have a terminally insulted intelligence. With the internet and a remote with fresh batteries, we can, for ourselves, sort of create our own media.
Years ago, skipping sports, comics, want ads, normal ads, “women’s pages, and out of town obits, I could absorb 4 newpapers per day. I am saidly down to NONE, so I turn to the new media, that which I select.
