Murrow and Cronkite were the last of the professional and trusted journalists. The raving propaganda and lunacy of MSN (FOX, CNN, etc) work well for the legion of minions in this country who also watch reality shows like Duck Dynasty and Real Housewives.
I recently cut the cord since it was a waste of money. An indoor antenna gets me what I need to watch football.

I agree.

It would appear that more and more people are getting rid of their cable or satellite TV subscriptions. I applaud the sentiment.

It is well past time that the public voted their dissatisfaction with their wallets and pocketbooks.

Poll- Black and White Ferguson Residents Agree – Media Made Things Worse

Unfortunately for the rest of us this is exactly what the media wants- violent protests, people bleeding, race wars breaking out. They need more eyeballs to sell more advertising, that's all they're selling folks.

Why do people even both watching any of those outlets? They have 1 agenda, ratings! Not the truth, just sensationalize anything to boost ratings.
