Reply to comment by phoenix_fire_starter in Biden fires Architect of the Capitol after calls for his resignation by Picture-unrelated

Yeah us news is weird. On an average day you’re liable to be less informed about what’s going on watching the news than people who don’t.

But if something major is happening then it all kind of makes sense and you know more than people that are actually there about what’s happening and every angle of why and what could happen next. It’s a bizarre dichotomy.

There was a law about it called the Fairness Doctrine but the Reagan administration collapsed it… now anything broadcast can call itself “news” no matter how fictional it is
