You can be their favorite darling, but then to keep things interesting, they'll turn around and pulverize you. Too often, they end up creating the story instead of reporting it. To keep ratings up, they'll add a lot of unnecessary drama and intrigue. Unfortunately, I think a lot of people are burned out already and they aren't tuning into cable news so much.

2016 was a real eye-opener and the MSM bears some responsibility for the nightmare we are living today. Still I sense they just can't help themselves and they will repeat the same mistakes again.
