Some stories to make my point?
---------

The stories you cite are national news, not local news.

I used to like to read what was going on in my county, but especially in my town.

Who was elected to the Town Council - what do they believe that I DON'T.

The local Board of Education - same thing.

The scholarship recipients - which college are they going to and what was their major.

The local sports.

Local activities.

Contact numbers for almost anyone you want.

While I agree that national news is almost always a lie, that is not what I read the local news for.

".......local journalism is dying....."

I had to make my own breakfast again.

I hate that.

BUTTTTT, I did make meatloaf the other night, WITH McCormick ingredients (dividends for my friend) and it was delicious.

I need a cook and housekeeper.

I need guidance.

I need a taller ladder.

eeeekkkk.


If you think education is expensive, try ignorance.

From the chair I'm sitting in . . .
Media Mavens need to be forced to consider the question :

"Why should I pay for a news service that lies to me?"

I personally believe that that is why viewership and readership
is down at so many news outlets.

Some stories to make my point?

"Trayvon Martin was murdered by George Zimmerman" . . . .
No, trayvon martin brutally and murderously assaulted
George Zimmerman. That would be why Zimmerman was not
arrested that fateful morning. And why Zimmerman was
found not guilty in a court of law.

"Michael Brown Was Shot in The Back With His Hands UP!"
Another media lie. Michael brown tried to play the
'knock-out' game with the policeman.

I'm sure most of us in here can relate similar stories
where the media deliberately pushed a false narrative.

Zim.
