Their viewers will have stinging eyes and hacking coughs until the libs have been owned. Makes you wonder how far is too far with this obvious health disinformation.

4. 24 Hour News Cycle

kills people. Opinion journalism masquerading as fact-based reporting is the only way to fill the time. There was a time that a portion of news was set aside for editorial and opinion, but it was clearly labeled as such. Now primetime cable news is nothing but opinion which the loudest voices saying whatever pablum gets them a soundbite on social media to up their 'brand'.

I was planning on staying in Hanoi during the burning season but it looked like NY does now.

Maybe it's a good idea for fux nooz and other phony nooz stations to keep telling the magats that this crap is safe for them to breathe (deeply!), and a way to own the libs!

I say, let them keep killing their own stupid viewers. Good riddance to bad rubbish!
