I have a confession to make - I've been watching MSM
Just for the earthquake/tsunami coverage, otherwise I turn it off. I really did quit watching after the election. Am I bad?

1. I think it's a sign of sanity
I've also stopped watching MSM. They are no longer worthy of being called news programs.

2. I watch snippets, mainly in the mornings
I guess I just need to hear what they're saying so I can knock them.

3. Yes. You need a spanking.
I'll administer.

4. I tune in briefly (about 5 minutes a couple of times a day)
but for all intents and purposes I have washed my hands of the MSM. I hate having my intelligence insulted so I end up telling them to take a f**king hike!

5. I'll quit again in a week or two
By that time it will be back to the Michael Jackson trial or something equally important.
I'm still watching Countdown though.

6. I usually go to gay bars to watch MSM action...

Unless you mean 'mainstream media', in which case I never see it. :evilgrin:

Edit: grammar
