I believe that there are good journalists and that not all news companies are corrupt or at least I’d like to. I don’t know what happened or made companies change from reporting facts and the truth to bending things, taking money to seemingly sway things. I think that somewhere there’s real reporting that hasn’t been tainted but who is to say who’s telling the truth and what the truth is. How do you find out if it is true. I can create documentation to support my findings and put it up there to be seen as factual, but how do you really know what is real?

I agree wholeheartedly especially with the pandemic we’ve been under for the last almost year. We have failed miserably with our health care system whereas other countries have a better system in place and healthier people. It’s quite obvious what we’re doing wrong. The system is broken, has been for awhile and still needs to be fixed. So what is everyone waiting for? Or do you just figure it’ll take care of itself, enough of us will die off and maybe they may consider something different.

That is the only way to get the truth and sometimes you have to go back and forth and ask the right questions to get the details to make informed decisions or relate it correctly instead of half assing what you think what people want to hear. When it comes to politics and business and government there’s way too much half assing it and not enough making sure we don’t keep making the same mistakes.
