What do you mean by fair? The press is not fair to Antifa. Fox News calls them a terror group. Most on the left do as well. Some on the far left may not. Personally I think the press is fair. I think they share their opinions.
Or do you want news to only confirm your opinions? Fair means agreeing with you? WTF?
Press needs to report the news and allow the viewers to form opinions vs. stating their opinions.
I agree that in a perfect world that would be the case. Unfortunately we live in a world with a 24 hour news cycle and stations feel the need to fill time.
Personally I think CNN and Fox try to hard to appear fair and balanced without actually being that way. Why have a Republican and Democrat sharing their political script? There are more than two sides to every story. There isn't always a Democrat side and a Republican side. You don't have to validate dumb arguments. There are fact checkers for a reason. Don't bring people on who's job it is to lie and pretend like you are doing some service to the world.
Anyway, we both agree that the media is flawed. You let it impact your political beliefs and morals. I don't.
And I still don't understand why Chris Cuomo being OK with Antifa makes you hate them more.
