I think it's time to force these companies to remove the word 'News' from their names. I watched CNN and MSNBC the other night, and i saw nothing resembling 'News' or 'Journalism.' It was all opinion propaganda. I think these networks should be forced to disclose the fact they're not reporting actual 'News.'
They should disclose they're only reporting opinion propaganda. That would be the right thing to do. Because at this point, most Americans really believe their receiving real 'News' from these networks. I think more disclosure needs to be required.
I watched CNN, Fox News and other cable news and also from foreign countries.
Fox News is the worst I've seen. They are very good in telling you the technicalities but not the reality....... in short distorted and very disturbing. Even my guest from other countries who the hell listen to Fox News so I showed then these links. Read the last paragraph.
Fox News watchers/listeners are the most UNINFORMED & UNEDUCATED Americans.
The Science of Fox News: Why Its Viewers Are the Most Misinformed
Survey: NPR’s listeners best-informed, Fox viewers worst-informed
Fox News Viewers Uninformed, NPR Listeners Not, Poll Suggests
People were asked questions about news habits and current events in a statewide poll of 600 New Jersey residents recently. Results showed that viewers of Sunday morning news shows were the most informed about current events, while Fox News viewers were the least informed.
In fact, FDU poll results showed they were even less informed than those who say they don’t watch any news at all.
