Agreed. 30 yrs in MSM (ended O/C as top 10 station anchor) and 2 decades as a producer at ABC News. It was NOT like this from the 1970s up till obama was anointed. If you watch old Nightline or World News Tonight or 60 Mins it was a profession I was proud to be a part of. Hard questions to everyone- liberally slanted to be sure but many a political ox was gored. News was news and it was actually good
I'd agree with 60 minutes and Nightline to a point. They would go after the story but they still went at it with a point of view. They just didn't let Democrats off the hook at every chance. Now it's a complete joke.
Used to be a local news director for a small stand alone AM station in the Monterey Bay Area...yup--news was news. If one wanted real reporting from real men..catch the reports from Ernie Pyle and other war-time correspondents.
Have you noticed that around the same time (Obama's second term), they started removing the comments sections from news websites and online newspapers? It's because readers were calling the biased journalists out on their bullshit and redpilling the other readers.
Former MSM journalist here. No, they never did this. At least not since the 60s.
