to me they have an agenda and they really don't care about professional journalism.

most are untrustworthy and that's a shame.

If the President of the United States is a liar, it is the duty of responsible media to point it out.
If you really believe this is going on, you need to think long and hard about that.
If you take Trump out of the mix for a moment, and look back further, let's say 8-16 years, the MSM has stopped keeping the presidents in check, and rather has sided with them based on their affiliations (left vs. right, CNN vs Fox). You are correct, the media SHOULD be there to keep politicians in check, that responsibility resting on the mainstream media is dying by the day, the internet has done a far better job not being puppets of Clinton, Inc or the GOP.
CNN is well beyond reporting facts to constructing conspiracies and censoring opponents. Saying CNN & Fox or any news like them is honest in their reporting is absolute madness.
I don't care how much you hate Trump, I have no idea how anyone can stomach the smug nonsense that is CNN. And many other liberals feel this same way. Thinking the mainstream media is a complete farse is not a radical right wing conservative idea.

The media is as corrupt as the politicians it sides with, simple as that. If it's actually reporting news, and facts, and not colluding with these scumbags, then it's not corrupt media.
And before you all go off on the wrong tangent again about Fox and Breitbart, i am STILL not promoting conservative news MSM. I continually include them in my assertion that most MSM is slimy.

Taking in refugees as sweden has is a an example of of a far left utopian ideology. The problem with Utopian ideas is they are not realistic for one, and second you compromise your present for a future that is not going to happen. Us progressives need to be realiestic. There are no Utopias, and it is ok to let people have to solve their own problems sometimes, especially when those problems stem from a death grip on a bronze age ideology.
Crime stats aside you have pretty large group of people you are paying for who are not integrating into your society or values. I do not see how that is a good thing at all. Sweden can have them all. Good luck.

The Russia thing is an example of bipartisan hypocrisy, when it's the Dems the republicans bitch, when it's the republicans the Dems bitch and so on and so on ... back and forth back and forth

I think no matter what bad experience you have in life, you need to recognize the aspects that made you a better person.

The collusion with major media channels and government is as despicable as mixing church and state.
One point I love from that video is: the good news is there is no gatekeeper, that bad news is, there is no gate keeper.
I think it is fair to say that major monopolies in media have the governments hands too far down their pants.

The problem with our media is not that we have let them get too out of control, its that we have let government get to damn big.

1. Even though it was bogus, I was taught the value of volunteering
2. I learned to speak in public even though I didn't want to
3. I met a lot of people some I would consider really amazing people, most others not so much
