People believe that if it's on TV is must be true. Well the media does more harm than good in my estimation. They report on things that they really can't cover in a short snippet of time, they report on topics they know nothing about. Their reports are often behind in time, like the real estate market. When they talk about the market being down, that was actually last months statistical reports - it's 30 days OLD! What they say impacts us all on a very personal level and financial level.

Some people do not spend the time to research the truth and will believe whatever is spoon-fed to them on TV. They will choose where they get their news by the personality of the newscaster that best suits them. That's why people are so opinionated on key issues without ever knowing what they are talking about.

Mainly because they're too lazy to do any research on their own and find out the real reason "why this, or why that"; they just take what the media shoves down their throats and gobbles it down.

based on everything that's going on today, we are forced to listen to all these newsreporters about this and that and whatnot, it's madness! with the way our president is handling the war, no one is sure what will happen tomorrow
