Yea, the American Corporate Media has become a HUGE problem...
It makes you cringe in expectation as to what story they are going peddle next.
(They are basically owned by only about 6 corporations now, and since Bill Clinton signed into law the Telecommunications Act of 1996). It's sorta' like, in the movie Network (all those years ago) where the acclaimed anchor Howard Beale was killed because of falling ratings! Like many of our politicians, our media is now mostly beholden to their corporate donors and sponsors and what gets the most ratings, as opposed to uncovering the truth and promoting peace for instance. And it very well may just be another sad example of a nation in decline. (But I hope not myself). Once again, decent people have to wake up. (Which is why allot of people get their news from YouTube and Social Media now, like in this video commentary from Jimmy Dore).
In other words, its all about greed now. (Instead of Integrity). For the most part anyway...
Disclaimer: Just want to say, that I do not necessarily agree with EVERYTHING Jimmy Dore says either. But on this point, for example, I strongly believe he is RIGHT ON!
He's got to stop the tongue thing though (in my opinion) it makes him look a little unbalanced. Its like someone who just told you something that blows your mind, and then like, starts scratching their ass or something! It makes you go: "Noo. Aagghh!!!"
(Similar thing with Gerald Celente for instance, who often says things that just makes you cringe, after just saying something else that makes you go wow). Sorry Jimmy.
No offense. Just some constructive criticism there...
