Point noted. Fair point as well. I sincerely thank you for the clarification and in fact find myself in agreement with said point as hypocrisy seems to be an equal opportunity item.

except worms are a real meal. fish are apparently smarter than american consumers - they don't swallow when the first bite reveals they've been offered a fake. both offerings have a hook in them, sure, but one is real food, and one isn't. too many of us can't detect the difference any more.

You've clearly never caught trout uncontrollably shitting power bait they are so gorged on it. However, your point is still valid. It's valid because even trout when faced with a meal that looks too good to be true all fluorescent coloured dripping in glitter gravy would likely prefer it to the natural feed and not question consequence. They are conditioned to hit the bright ball on the feeder like so many Americans who have not seen outside the cement pond. I'm quite certain the ones that pontificate the detriment of such things are shouted down as heretics. Even the thought of a lake to swim free and forage in terrifies the masses of deformed fins and morbid obesity so common in the hatchery raceway. They know to swim free and eat bugs is clearly a horrible existence. Just stay around the feeder, wait, what's that? Is that bright green glitter gravy......

Fox definitely has a wider spread. Rupert wants that outrage money. Real news is boring as shit. I tried to be a good boy and only expose myself to AP and so on, but I only lasted a day. Now, I just don't consume any news at all. If I need to know something, someone always tells me one way or another.

Join me and let's create a fact based naked news network. I'll call it Naked Truth. It writes itself. We'll be rich and do mankind a service all at the same time. Perhaps the most ethical media millionaire magnates ever. Fox will tremble when they see our newscasters getting naked to seduce people to witness truth. It will be beautiful.
You'd have to buy the rights from the NBN (https://www.imdb.com/search/title/?companies=co0040686), another great Canadian innovation (right up there with bacon).

Things seem to be going quite well for Alex Jones and Infowars.....

Slimeball trying to get out of paying up, hope the courts reject his filing.
Certainly there are some lactose intolerant people would view "got milk" as hate speach.
Who in the hell decided that humans need to drink cows milk to be healthy anyway ?
Oh yeah, the dairy lobby did...and then they got subsidies to make sure they made money to produce an unneeded product.
They don't call it 'milking the government teat' by coincidence.

Millenia of human history has populations using animal milk in some form or another. So give up milk, cheese, whey, butter, ice cream, yogurt. I am in the dairy industry, btwWho in the hell decided that humans need to drink cows milk to be healthy anyway ?

An honest tune with a lingering lead
I'm not on twitter, never have been.
I'm also not the one melting because Musk is trying to buy it.
Any changes to FB and T are welcome. Controlling narratives are not an aspect of a free society. Let anyone say what they want. Force users to dig deeper and figure it out. Unfollow who you don't agree with. Controlled narratives create stupid people and aid in the creation of really fanatical insane counter groups and perspectives. Since when in history have book burners been on the side of truth and awareness?
that may be so, but the point is that both are relatively popular with their respective audiences and are on opposite sides. The fact that one may be "slightly worse" with regard to reliability is irrelevant (when both have pretty similar track records with such things).
PBS News Hour is about as clean a source as I've found. Boring as hell, like news should be.
There's a reason I read the news instead of watch it....unless I feel like a nap (although, that could happen either reading or watching)
Agreed. Their website is a good spot to keep up. It's where I typically check in.

I really would like to be able to agree with this, for the sake of this country and humanity in general. However, if you adjusted that infographic for actual viewership, I believe the results would be damning.
