The Media - Bob Lonsberry
Oh Boy!
I have found a new friend...
I have found a new friend...
Bob Lonsberry takes the news industry apart.:
"If there's one group of people I trust less and have more contempt for than politicians, it is reporters. We are a nation awash is news products which contain virtually nothing of subsance or worth. We have channels full of 24-hour crap, and hardly a reporter anywhere who can actually tell it to us straight.
The media has called itself to some position of importance and significance in our society, taking upon itself an air or power and superiority that is almost comical. They have almost made themselves a special class of people whose every notion or whim is 'right' and any contrary view is 'wrong.' They are collectively the most arrogant and self-important group of people in our society today.
And yet they are terrible at their job."
