i've said it before and i'll repeat for those who missed it the first time.  News Media's purpose is not to report the truth, rather, it is to generate advertising revenue.  How best to get more revenue than to have more viewers?  And how to get more viewers?  To report the "news" in the most salacious manner possible.  

You all still watch their drivel, eh?

I know they have freedom of speech, but I think there are a few laws to prevent false information from being reported. Maybe we should all record or purchse each news feed, and file a class-action suit?????
