    I'm talking about clicking on any one of them for real  "News" ,what do we get ?  Severely lame  examples of  tabloid crap , can I use that word ?    Just browsing  U.S. related News and  I might as well  read a cereal box  ?

      It has been this way for some years. Six major corporations control 90% of the news sources in the country and into the world with some. Is there any doubt that they may have an agenda or control what is reported? The title for these farces should be Infotainment.

        No news is more often good news.
        It's a sign people could be getting better.

          Unless no news is to control something.

            More likely it is a shell game to keep us busy on something minor, wail they destroy something major.

              It is in line with the political agenda as well.

        "Is there any doubt that they may have an agenda or control what is reported?"
        My answer to that is "no".

        How many people heard about Obama's secret TPP "Free Trade" Deal that passed this week while the news is busy talking about the Confederate flag?

          Excellent point. The purpose of the news anymore is to keep us fat, happy and dumb.
