  1. I think the real problem with the news is that there is no real accountability to it, so they can pretty much say whatever they want, within reason. That's a problem, because a lot of the time, you're not really getting the news, you're getting a distorted version of the news that usually fits a specific agenda, whiles throwing in a lot of opinion peaces, which lets be honest, that isn't news, that's a personal view and even on those, news stations are picky on what they allow to be broadcasted, basically, it's all manipulated to fit a specific agenda and world view point, mostly based on how they want to see things going and not on how things are going. What's really messed up is how so many people get fooled in watching news for entertainment value, basically the news station with higher ratings, if these people really want entertainment, then what the hell are they watching a news station? It's kinda self manipulative, and me personally, I rather get the dry boring news that's based on facts and reality, as boring as that is, it's better to be informed on how things are and not on how you want things to be. As for me, what is neutral? Well any news that's based on the facts as we know them, without opinion peaces on them to distort those facts, and I know that would do as well in the ratings, but at least it's based on the facts as we know them at the time and at the end of the day, what's the point in getting the news unless it's based on the facts of what's really going on? Anything else is kinda like wasting your own time whiles also twisting your mind on BS.
