    I'll take your word for it,.. any US government attempt to control the news is an attack on our Constitutional rights, period.

    I've mentioned this here before,.. what evils Obama's administration may have done--I probably don't know about, because I wasn't paying any attention,.. totally disgusted by the health care debate, I said fuck it, and became a person I've never respected,.. an idiot American ignoring the news hiding his head in the sand.

    I'm much better now though.,.. that pos Trump made me pay attention again

    A lot better for the blood pressure. I don't watch much mainsteam news anymore, The flow of information assaulting our consciousness 24/7/365 keeps us at least peripherally aware of what's going on. You just have to set your mental filters on autopilot. There are more important things in the world to think about. Like how are you going to feel when the Astro sweep your Giants.

    He tried to exclude Foxnews from the White House briefings and the rest of the journalists from the other organizations balked at him. And then he had the DOJ spy on James Rosen.

    Sometimes I think it would be better not to pay attention. LOL
