CBS started the down hill spiral of bad news by putting $$$$$$$ ahead of our country. Don't forget what the CBS answer to putting trump first and our Country last: Leslie Moonves, CBS ceo, on Donald Trump: “It May Not Be Good for America, but It’s Damn Good for CBS”. That's all you saw with CNN after all trump puts down the media and the media bends over backwards to put him on. It's total BS but the media is now about $$$$$ and no longer about putting out truthful NEWS. We have the Rain Cycle and now we also have (let's call it) the "News Cycle":

1. billionaire donors give millions to politicians
2. politicians spend millions to get reelected with their message and/or lies using the media
3. the media needs the money, because they are now a profit organization
4. the politicians pass laws or give them our money to help the rich donors get richer
5. the politician no longer needs the money we the voter pay them for they now make millions
6. the ceo's and main "NEWS" anchors make millions as they pass on the message and/or lies

7. EVERYONE BUT US GET RICHER...
