Re: On The Media: Where Do You Get Your News?
I'm down to Bill Maher, Samantha Bee, Seth Meyers, and Trevor Noah at this point.
Oh, and Vox's YouTube Channel.

Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

Fox News on Thursday retracted a story it ran on John Garofalo after learning that Garofalo never served in the Navy SEALs or was in Vietnam.

Re: On The Media: Where Do You Get Your News?
The genius of the modern TV news outlets is that the information presented has to fit into that 7 or 8 minute window between commercials.
Only conventional ideology can be repeated, presented, in that window.
Its like Chomsky said, either repeat conventional ideology or say something true-and sound like you're from Neptune.
then you got the select few saying, blah yada fuckin whatever....as if 1 person is siting around deciding which stories to broadcast?
Well yeah, that individual was called an editor-producer today.

There's plenty for all.

Re: On The Media: Where Do You Get Your News?
I just realized that I get most of my news from Twitter. It's just such an easy way to curate multiple views on trending topics. For conservatives I like David French and Ross Douthat, for libertarians I like Tyler Cowen and Russ Roberts, and for liberals I like Noah Smith.
I'll be the one in the lobby in the green fuck me shirt. The green one.

How else are we supposed to defend ourselves against locust hordes or chaos demons?
