Oh I meant yes, oops. I don't know actually, I gave up on the news when I got kids.

Which ironically makes you part of the problem. When it was the custom to read at least a good newspaper every morning, there was enough money for the newspapers to do hire and keep good journalists. Once the subscriber count gets down to a critical mass, the newspaper either folds or gets bought up by a "sugardaddy" - and good journalism goes out the door, never to return. Nowadays, everybody starts her/his own "blog" and considers her/himself a journalist. Since young people are reading each other's blogs now instead of the few good newspapers left, they never learn what good journalism is. If they grew up watching Fox News, then the catastrophy is complete.
