Pretty much all of the cable news entertainment programming serves as a mouthpiece for the state department.
It's why they all avoid discussing the really critical issues and attack each other in front of their audiences with stupid little cultural pablum.
They create their own controlled opposition, focusing on trivial silliness, in order to avoid any kind of actual journalism pertaining to the really critical goings on which affect peace, prosperity and civil liberties.
If you really pay attention, FOX, for example, will spend all day citing CNN and then argue against whatever dumb stuff CNN is running to their own audience.
So if you want to see what CNN is saying, just turn on FOX.
And vice versa.
And it's always something that is about as deep as a mud puddle.
Truth is treason. And anyone who even flirts with speaking it will be dealt with swiftly. Or so they seem to think...
