17. Sorry man
I agreed with you until I spent nearly a year traveling in other countries between 2004-2005. Watching Cnn and Fox compared to stations from all the other countries was like night and day. all the other countries told the same stories. flip to CNN and Fox and you got two nearly identical stories that disagreed with the world.

Hell I sell ad space for tradeshow publications. Guess what, buy and ad and you get to write an "Editorial" about how great your company is. Shocking eh? These Media companies are not the old timey newspapers they're just another type of mega corporation now that sell their favors to the highest bidder. They don't care about truthiness they care about profit.

Shock you to get you watching, lie to you to sell even more adspace to those that want you to be lied to.
