exaggerated stories

[Gerianne]

they say that everybody loves to tell a story .
the reporters go out to get the news.
public interest is a main factor.
you have to dig a bit to get the truth.
there have been a number of reporters leaving networks.
they have their valid reasons.

When I listen to the "news",   I don't want a "story"---I want the facts.  Leave the exaggerated public interest stories to the Enquirer.

Spending seventy minutes a day, reviewing five internet news sites, is the worst part of my job. I need to decipher the truth from the propaganda posted or the articles twisted to capture people's attention. At first it was comical to see how far apart two different sites could be and the way that they would spin the story based on what party they were affiliated with. Fox and CNN are the worst perpetrators with at least fifty five percent of what they write being propaganda or biased, opinionated garbage. Some print the same article two to three days in a row with different pictures and headlines. I had not noticed this until 9/11 when the media and political administration began their anti-Muslim campaign. Amazing to see how quickly that spread.

I have quit watching the News, reading the newspaper because it is not news anymore but one group trying to get "one up" on another group.

I stay informed but just turned off all the network Blah, blah.
