Damn she looks really happy for her hubby just getting whacked. Guess he didn’t mean that much.
Another domino falls. Paramount poised to make them bend the knee to the king like ABC News did before them, despite Trump having no case.

Worse, the network's independence now appears over as it heads to becoming a Trump mouth piece.
"But the president's open rancor toward 60 Minutes looms over all. Corporate parent Paramount and its controlling owner, Shari Redstone, are seeking the approval of federal regulators to sell it to the son of Oracle founder Larry Ellison. The billionaire software mogul is a friend of Trump who visited the president at the White House earlier this year."
Have we lost almost all media now?OP was spot on...
Lost my trust in the media during The Free Speech Movement. Tried to explain this to some people at the time but felt that I failed to do so.Have we lost almost all media now?
MAGA propaganda holding most stations / channels is going to impact how the public reacts to things like the shutdown. Who they blame. Rather, who they are told to blame.
Please don't. They are still attempting to broadcast objective journalism. It's about the last (MSNBC) inclusive. Unfortunately, Lawrence O'Donnel indicated on last night's broadcast that the ownership is changing for the worst. WE ARE DOOMED.
So much for American exceptionalism. Our institutions (public and private) caved faster than the Germans’ did.
"How many good guys are left? How many stayed that way?"
Just one more incompetent is all that would be. Trump's penchant in 2.0 is to pick complete incompetents across the board. I have caught wind of no exceptions to this. His cabinet is entirely incompetent. Being incompetent himself, Rump loves (prefers, let's not sully the word love) incompetency.Please don't.

Well, it's more that he loves ego stroking, and doesn't care about competence, and the competent people aren't going to stroke his ego (because he's a stupid man with bad ideas).Just one more incompetent is all that would be.

Notice Bill DeBlasio's dig at Bill de Blasio? ("I've always been Bill DeBlasio")speaking of new lows in journalism......this is just astonishingly bad
tldr - British paper interviews Bill Deblasio (a wine salesman from NY, not the ex mayor)
Bill de Blasio (born Warren Wilhelm Jr., May 8, 1961, and known as Warren de Blasio-Wilhelm between 1983 and 2001)
I not only abandoned my usual watch of 60 Minutes when its leader stepped down in protest, I stopped watching CBS news. My go-to for national TV news now is NBC. Yesterday was IIRC the first exception (because of how my afternoon played out) and I watched ABC news. I was repulsed. Watched the whole 30 minutes pretty much and was disgusted. I did not vomit, but ...Lost my trust in the media during The Free Speech Movement. Tried to explain this to some people at the time but felt that I failed to do so.
I haven't watched a single "episode" of 60 Minutes since the head stepped down when they sold out to Trump (betrayal of America on steroids).
The moment you lose free access to the internet and international medias, is time to worryHave we lost almost all media now?
