3. Americans Have Infotainment Instead of Journalism and Accurate News
Sat Jan 14, 2017, 09:06 AM
Jan 2017

For some time, Americans haven't received comprehensive and accurate news reporting. To understand what is really happening in the world, it takes a variety of news sources, not all of them American. If we had journalism instead of media and infotainment, Americans would be better informed and greatly concerned about a hostile foreign power compromising and effecting the outcome of a presidential election, especially given the active complicity of highly placed government officials (this means you, James Comey).

When it's all about the money, everything becomes all about the money. There is a reason Americans are fed a smorgasbord of junk news.
