"I don't trust the liberal/conservative media"
    #19080726 - 11/03/13 02:56 PM (10 years, 3 months ago)

I hear this term more and more, with the person in question either saying they don't trust the liberal or conservative media.
Suffice to say, it tends to be the "liberal media", but it does go both ways. In any case, it baffles me.
How can one not trust media with one political agenda but put all their faith in a media source with the opposite political agenda?

What if I trust neither, because neither are perfect, both are opinionated, and both publish misinformation once in a while? And why do so few people seem to share this view?


Why not take a look at both, if not some outside sources in addition, and then decide for yourself?

You're very angry today huh?

Take a walk, a shot, maybe a few more shots, and then a nap in that order :drunk:

edit:repeat treatment as needed

This is exactly what I've been doing the past 2 days, abet with only one or two drinks. Honestly, it's helping me get back to, well, myself.


It's funny how your joking comment was nearly perfectly correct.

:crazy2:

I think you're just watching other people a little to closely. Just worry about what you like and not what they do.

If you wanted to be cool while you chill out you could always:bonghit: but only if you want to be cool.

Fuck media in general.  Politics is a joke I dont understand why people get so caught up in it.  My parents finally came to that same conclusion, i was so happy to hear my mom say something like " it's all just a horse n pony show, IDGAF about it anymore."

The conservative side, at least in talk radio, loves to harp about the liberal media.

Most US media is conservative, but the 2 most fact-checked news programs (supposedly, as of a couple years ago) are The Colbert Report and The Daily Show.

:sadyes:


Also liberals don't really have much in the way of talk radio. We all know what happened to Air America.
