One of the things that I find most interesting is the propensity of the media to insult the intelligence of 70 percent of the population that bothers to watch TV in the first place then then they have the gravitas to demand huge sums of money for commercial television advertising.
Who in their right minds would want to advertise or even be associated with a media that allegedly lies, cheats, manipulates, folds bends and otherwise fails to do anything to develop discourse that is accurate at all…
It makes you wonder what kind of business people they must be?
I find it personally insulting that the media seem to constantly affirm the idea that they can treat the viewer any old way they want including but not limited to harassment, bias, lies, half truths, out of context quotes, teases and being just plain mean.
