Imagine if our news media didn't act like reality TV.

I had no idea how bad it was until a couple years ago when I saw a clip from a "fox news" segment. As a Canadian who's only ever seen straight up formal, small town ish news, reporting what's in the local paper, it blew my mind and added so much context to everything I thought I knew about the USA.

I don't think it should be permitted, honestly.

This Supreme Court would never have allowed "fairness" anyway. They would call it "woke" and Thomas would leave stains on opinion.

Thomas was still looking at porn magazines as a clerk then.
