This is a video that JUST shows what Fox News commentators said at two different times, about the exact same thing...

I guess there's a reason folks call it "faux news".

political news ,for a while, has centered around facts being presented as bias for or against a person instead of facts centered around .. well, facts.

ALL mainstream NEWS is opinion based.
There is always an authority given the spotlight that knows more about it than you do. Even tho, just like you, they never actually witnessed the event. Those authorities often validate the going opinion. Their job is to convince you of something supporting the agenda.
There is just enough facts on the event to make it NEWS.

NEWS is an accounting of events that take place in the North, East, West and South.
Opinion is not NEWS, it is speculation. Often based on specific agendas and used to sway your reaction.

If you can, choose any NEWS story.
Separate the actual facts from the opinion.
Then reread it as facts.
More times than not you will find it says something entirely different and cause a different reaction inside. Too many times, you will realize that there is nothing special about the NEWS, that it does not really concern you at all.
Much ado about nothing.
