I'm not scary! I'm here to chat and discuss
But I also can't ignore political remarks either, I think that's fair

^ Finding independent journalists is very hard these days glad some are still out there.

A fluffy kitten I take as a compliment
The dangerous thing with many media outlets these days seems to be with audience capture and the cult-like behaviour of people and their unbreakable loyalty to certain outlets. Your attention to outlets should be how well they report stories, facts & reality which even over time or story to story could change.
Even with recent court filings when it's been proven in court with evidence that a particular outlet & their hosts knew the reality and spoke about it privately yet said the complete opposite on air probably won't make any difference to the audience of that outlet or the shows on that outlet which seems outrageous yet is exactly what's happening.
I watched the recent episode of Bill Maher where he had Russell Brand and John Heilemann on a panel and Brand kinda summed it up perfectly (which Heilemann didn't appreciate lol) in his remarks on American media with regards to Fox News, MSNBC etc and that they're all sides of the same coin, although within that there's more nuance because with that assessment you can also further judge some outlets more than others.
Regardless, independent journalists and outlets seem to be the better way to go these days unfortunately.
