because when they try and tell you what the government is doing, all the government has to say is, "They're lying, it's fake news." and if the people buy that crap, the government can do whatever they want

I don't have 5 hours to watch 7 different news stations to get the full story because everyone picks and chooses their facts to fit their agenda

 

[Rosie]

THe media isn't perfect, but they are essential.

 

[Jacob Fox]

I don't have five hours to do that either.

 

[Just Kevin]

Honestly the media should just quit reporting on Trump and then he would have a meltdown and go crazy and then be impeached.

 

[Jacob Fox]

I spend less than 30 minutes looking at the main stories on different sites and I feel I'm one of the most informed people you'll ever meet

 

[Black Wizard]

Trump > Pence

 

[Black Wizard]

if people are still scared of Trump

 

[Jacob Fox]

That is the one thing I will agree with you on

 

[Black Wizard]

well buddy, lemme introduce you to Pence

 

[Rosie]

Because honestly, and you may call me crazy, but this is something that I have seen and it scares me, but him trying to basically tell everyone "Only trust the President, don't listen to the media" is basically something that authoritarian governments do, not ones in liberal democracies

 

[Just Kevin]

Essentially we're fucked either way

 

[Crithu]

The media is definitely important, but the corporate media is what loses my trust

 

[Rosie]

And Trump already has grounds to be impeached as he is still tied very to his buisnesses
