And I learned everything about human relations from Ann Landers and Love Is.

Lord they keep making dudes that do the “if the average person was as smart as me”. Probably time to move to Mars. If only someone would write a newsletter about how to do it.

To be clear, I mean the dude you’re replying to who has seen through the veil the fourth estate cast over our eyes.

What's wrong about what he's saying, though? The media is, largely, a conduit for propaganda. There's very little unbiased journalism, and none of it is free.

What is free and what constitutes unbiased? We have spent a decade defining unbiased as some kind of idealized Michelangelo carved out of what the right insists upon. If the Ancient Greeks felt the right answer was a benevolent dictator, I am ok with a press that reports accurately with their bias toward truth.

By "free" I meant "gratis". I don't know what "bias towards truth" means when everyone thinks they're biased towards truth.
