You don't get to speak about honestly when you share a Breitbart article.

As far as the topic goes, this is an issue of the modern state of news media. It needs to be produced rapidly and draw the most views. The Russia story, being controversial and scandalous, probably gets more clicks and views than other stories. The result, it gets covered more.

The CNN anchor even notes that this is a dilemma journalists face. What's covered and what is left out; it's a tough call. The fact is, when you're a national news organization, you have to make it universal and they ultimately pick the stories that work best. It's about money, of course. This is the consumeristic trend we've been on for quite some time. It's all sell, sell, sell. CNN, Fox, even your precious Breitbart... they all do it. You don't think Breitbart picks and chooses what it will publish? They cater to an audience who wants to hear a certain view point. This is modern media and if you want to change it, you're gonna need smarter criticisms than "FAKE NEWS!"

I sincerely do not get how anyone can work for CNN any longer. It is a veritable cesspool and wasteland. For about 10 seconds I can watch Don Lemon, while flipping channels. He, like the rest, is such a blatant wh*re.

But, I guess it pays well, so that's all it takes to sell your soul. If they had one to begin with.

Its true. The collusion was so deep it takes all their time to cover it. More and more evidence comes in. Of course the lack of terror attacks, and natural disasters also limit them to talking about politics.

Same thing happened with Watergate. People got tired of it grinding on month after month with no apparent resolution... and then, out of the blue -- BAM -- special prosector Jaworski and a grand jury deliver indictments on 7 people plus Nixon as an unindicted co-conspirator. From that point things picked up speed, impeachment hearings began and of course Nixon resigned.
