We really need to go back to a time when the news was boring and most people hated politicians regardless of party. Right now all this biased media has people rooting for their team(party) regardless of how bad it sucks. Can we make news non profit or something? We can’t continue like this.
The time you refer to was when news was a service. The networks were not trying to make a huge profit.
Then came the 24 hour news channels, and news became big business. And the media people figured out that we watch the news much more when we are scared. On 9/11 and 9/12, the number of people watching the news broke records. So the media people have figured out that if they scare us, they make more money.
