The Media's obsession of Trump
Basically for the past two years, the news networks have been reporting almost entirely about Trump, and nearly all of it is negative. It's almost hilarious that I can go to anyone of the news stations, left wing or right wing, and can tell even before they speak that it'll be about Trump. I don't quite understand why a news outlet would think it is a smart move to incite false chaos in it's own country. What kind of message does that send to the world? In the current storm we're in now, the news networks should be seeking out the good along with the bad, rather than dividing a nation that is a lot closer than people seem to realize. At the end of the day we're all still Americans and it's time we all start acting like it.

ReplyDeleteThe chaos is annoying. I'd say that many in the news media are doing what they are supposed to do -- they are literally supposed to act as yet another "check" on government. So, when a leader starts doing things that are uncharacteristic or dangerous or unethical, media outlets report to the people so that the people can demand changes through representation. It's been a rough couple of years, that's for sure.
