    I mean... the total lack of unbiased news in the US is the real problem.

    It's not that there's ample political entertainment shouting shows on TV. It's the dearth of any intelligent discourse across party lines showing up literally anywhere in the public discourse.

    People are savages if allowed to be. If we can't hold our news agencies and politicians up to a higher standard, they certainly wont miss the opportunity to lower their standards.

    I think you're making a better argument here than in your previous post. The media is there to sell advertising space, which doesn't work well with the objective reporting of facts.

    Over here we have the BBC, which people on the left argue is right-biased and people like Ong argue is left-biased. So it's probably pretty balanced. All the other MSM on TV at least is fairly neutral. Most newspapers are biased but not to the extremes as in the US. Overall, you can get neutral news if you want it. Doesn't seem to be true in the US.
    I just think we should suspend judgment on Boris until we have all the facts through an inquiry, police investigation, and parliamentary commission...then we should explode him.
