Give me less 1A, and more Reveal or Snap Judgement. 1A is probably the poster child for transition from interesting content from marginalized voices that informs listeners into whatever it is today, which is circling around the drain of angry media told through a calming voice.

I still think that the major national shows like Morning Edition and All Things Considered hit just like they did a decade ago - albeit one dimension of our politics is less deserving of air time of the other, and that is reflected in their coverage.

I have had to turn them off numerous times because they play Trump's sound bites too much. I guess they want to exact full impartial coverage but it comes to a point where some swill just doesn't need air time. I'm totally cool with paraphrased coverage but not giving that pig a megaphone.

1A is hot garbage. The lady always interrupts guests if they stray beyond the 2-minute soundbite.
