You are 100% correct! The US "media"only cares about ratings and whatever party is paying them off to spew their latest "news". I used to watch the news multiple times a day (years and years ago) but as everyone here agrees it has become the mouthpiece of ignorance and sensationalist "journalism". Rarely are there factual stories anymore, usually it is being used as an attempt to further stupidity in the world, when I want news now, I check multiple international news outlets, Reddit, etc. Great post, Steem on and now following!
