[QUOTE="Frank Underwood, post: 111958, member: 35"] That's why I don't watch mainstream media. Fox News provides cover for Republicans and attacks Democrats, while MSNBC does the same thing in reverse. There is more going on in the world than Russia-gate and Trump's affair with a porn star, but the mainstream media won't cover it. However, independent media has covered a range of issues from income inequality, healthcare, the tax bill, the military budget, warrantless surveillance, the wars we're in, etc. They also help dispel the hysteria and hyperbole surrounding Russia-gate, and put it in its proper perspective. They're not afraid to go after Republicans AND Democrats when necessary. It may not be sexy, but at least it's informative. And speaking of Jeff Bezos, he's a real piece of work. His employees work for shit wages in deplorable conditions, while he's the richest man in the world thanks to crony capitalism. Absolutely. Few people are willing to listen when I say Trump is a symptom of systemic rot. That's why I'm constantly reminding people of the corruption of politicians from the past. Mueller was one of the people who lied about WMDs on behalf of the Bush Administration, but the left loves him anyway because he's investigating Trump. Even Bush has rehabilitated his image by disliking Trump. The left used to hate Bush for Iraq, but gave Hillary a pass for supporting it. And they hate Cambridge Analytica for data mining Facebook, even though the Obama campaign did the same thing in 2012. I can't stand that sort of blatant partisan hackery, and it's everywhere. That's why I offer no apologies for voting third party. [/QUOTE]
