To be honest I haven't watched CNN since Rudi Bakhtiar was on it and the only reason I watched was to whack off to Rudi Bakhtiar.

It would be interesting if someone started a alternative media site called REAL NEWS and stayed politically neutral and just did real reporting. Would it be too boring? I talk to people who work in marketing and our society runs on sound bites. The attention spans are really short and to be honest there are people in here who can articulate what they believe in or a point they are making better than the average American can. The IQ on this website is actually higher than what's wandering around out there. Most people today can't articulate anything. That's why they vote for celebrities. Arnold won California with zero political experience because he was in movies. Trump won without any political experience because he's a celebrity. Obama was a do nothing senator who came from nowhere but they marketed him as a celebrity. It's about celebrity and I'm afraid you could have a very well qualified candidate for office with a impressive list of accomplishments and the citizens will choose the celebrity over substance. Sounds like ancient Rome going down with the bread and circuses and maybe we are there.No! You can't have the keys to the wine cellar!Comment

Beyond all of that, it seems like as a nation more and more citizens are reaching the conclusion that "the mainstream media" are intentionally lying to them about "the facts" whenever a story is reported which reaches conclusions that don't "feel right" or conflict with what said citizens believe to be true.
It's all good and well to have beliefs, but I would think most agree those beliefs deserve to have a basis in provable factual information to be held so dear. Religion being the obvious exception to this. Maybe some are more comforted with "faith based" facts, or "alternative facts" as Kellyanne Conway recently put it. Initially, I thought she had meant to say "alternative interpretations" and had merely misspoke, but I suppose not since she never corrected what she said.
Like, people will see a news panel on CNN, and one of the guests will say something and back it up with statistics from a government study. More and more, what I'm hearing from those who disagree isn't merely that the government study could be wrong due to flaws in the scientific method by which the government study collected the data, rather that the government is intentionally, deliberately falsifying the data as part of a conspiracy against "The Truth"...yet, when you ask these people what the ACTUAL data is, they either a) have no answer or b) if they do have an answer are then unable to say how THEY came reach THEIR conclusion in terms of provable data. As in, "well, if the government is lying, how do you KNOW that?" "I just do, because the government ALWAYS lies." Well, where the fuck does one go from there, you know?No! You can't have the keys to the wine cellar!Comment

What? No report on his latest press conference slave FORD? You know, the one where he says to the media for his downfall "fuck you for that."
