I Get Depressed Listening To The News

Well, they all do have an agenda, although CNN's agenda is pretty incoherent and self-contradictory. THat said, I'd call MSNBC roughly 60% reliable, 40% slanted or propaganda; Fox is roughly 90% slanted or propaganda and 10% reliable, and CNN is 30% rightwing propaganda, 20% leftwing propaganda, 30% rank hysteria and 20% complete blathering nonsense. If I can't get BBC, CNN/International, or another foreign service, I'll prefer MSNBC, but put up with Fox if that's what's on offer: but I'd rather stick toothpicks in my ears than bother with (American) CNN.

There are only two channels on TV. On and Off. Everything On is the same shit.

Anything mainstream media is OWNED by the corporate conglomerate and the mindset behind it. It keeps us controlled by presenting not just WHAT we see, but HOW we see. Mainstream news, and the media in general, is consciously constructed, filtered and presented to us in a way which keeps us susceptible and vulnerable to whatever authority needs for us to know. We're nothing but cattle to them, kept in the dark about the truths of how this world is operated and what's really going on. The corporate entity, masquerading as our government, strives to keep us as mindless (and consuming) as possible. A bumper sticker I saw: CRITICAL THINKING; The OTHER National Deficit

they all have an agenda. msnbc isnt even news, it 's bad comedy

They all want blood. Blood = ratings. Not really but you know what mean. Riots and calls of racism gets people going and get'a ratings.
Yes they have an agenda. To make the most money.

None of the above...they are the fake news. Corporate bought media to misinform the masses and keep us dumb.If you don't fact check - you're screwed.

I think they all have an agenda. The media (journalists) used to report news. Now they report opinions as facts. There is no neutrality. they all cave to popular opinion and ratings.

I don't trust any of them now. I can't watch the news anymore because of all the negativity they show. Hey could do stories on people who do good and other things but I guess terror and violence sells better.

there was a time the networks reported the news. Now they try to make it

Anything that accepts money for it's own survival is going to slant it, sensationalize it, hype it. It's amazing how we have come so far in our ability to obtain information, but have made it so hard to decipher what's real and hype.

You know the hard thing to accept, it's usually the far out there ports of information that have it correct, but we dismiss because they're so far removed.

All will have some bias, since there exists editors and producers.


For me, I very few major news outlets will devote more than 1-2 minutes on a topic to hold an audience. The BBC and NPR are a couple exceptions.

I try to read/listen/watch for a number of them, partly for a broader range of information and stories.

Their agenda is similar. More eyes means more advertising dollars.
Of the three I'd say that MSNBC has the most insightful content, FOX is the most agenda-driven and CNN looks to create false equivalencies on most issues in a quest to reach the widest demographic.

I'd say they're all skewed, CNN and MSNBC being very liberal and Fox being conservative though if you had to 100% pick from one of the three I'd pick Fox. But try to stay away from MSM national or international

Every one on the planet has an agenda of some sort. Depending on how much useless information is stored in your brain. My 2 cents. :)

Stick with PBS news, it may be boring but at least they just tell you the news.

I stopped listening to most of the news,to me it's too liberal

CBSN, because nobody cares about cbs anymore

None...do your own research.
