I am human... allegedly. Just a social science teacher dealing with the madness.

My politics match a Susan Vega song. Other than that mostly here for Everton and Marvel comics.

Just be glad you aren't in California I got up at 4AM to hear the news.

You can't say facts matter, then dedicate your space to a shouting match about said facts. CNN lets example Scott Jennings claim Biden has dementia, but when someone says the same about Trump he yells at them for not being a doctor. This passing for news analysis makes objective truth subjective.

For me as a regular news consumer, the issue with CNN et al., is mostly two things. One is the lack of depth and complexity of issues where a small summary is provided, the second is everything is put through a lense partisan actors discussing the issue in a whataboutism matter.

I have to agree heavily with the too DC/NYC focus. When California had the organized effort to recall our Governor that barely was covered on CNN, but the NYC mayor's race dominated coverage.

You have a 24 hour news network, that in reality I can usually get all the "news" of the day in 30 min.

Teaching my AP Government class only days after January 6th via remote learning was a challenge.

It is amazing how that was weaponized against the left, when Trump was pals with Epstein.
