I know I kind of went off on a rant there, it wasn't pointed at you. I follow ABC, CNN, NBC, MSNBC pretty regularly, and all of those are now (over the last few weeks) consistently reporting the real danger in real terms (MSNBC leads by a country mile, of course).
Really? I haven't followed CNN closely in years, but they were always pretty wishy-washy, and what articles I've seen from them recently have been very... 'both sides'.
Ah, I'm watching clips from broadcasts on YouTube. Maybe broadcast and print are handling things differently?
I'll note that ABC has been on point with a lot of scoops. They've got to have a contact inside somewhere in relation to the many notable civil and criminal trials going on.
I had checked out on CNN for a while, too, since they shifted pretty center-right, but figured I should keep up with them in order to stay aware of what that perspective is. I'll catch a Fox News bit here and there, but I'm not putting them in my feed. If you have any other suggestions, I welcome them.
