My distress is in the fact that we have to fact check the media and rate them as right/left leaning. I suppose it’s ridiculous to expect them to be truthful and neither left nor right. I guess I’m being delusional in thinking they should REPORT all news without regards to political weight. This is how the death of freedom begins.
