I'd rather be poorly informed than intentionally misinformed. I quit watching the "news" during the first Obama Administration, when I saw with stark clarity that it wasn't news, but propaganda parroted by every media organization. I switched to somewhat independent internet media at that point, but those have been winnowed away as well, so now I don't really bother. I know what's happening, anyway, and why.


I belong on eroding granite, among the pines.
