 That's true and that's your preference and hopefully we all continue to have the freedom to choose

I prefer a mix of everything 
I like crappy footage from some rando's phone that's on the ground at the time of the event

But I also like turning to fox or cbs or abc occasionally
Already knowing their biases and what they value as a company 
But only for the things that I know they will go hard at and try to expose actual truth

And seeing past the theatrics of it all

I used to turn to RT for the same reason but quickly found out it's all lies
Like the tabloids you'd see back in the day about batboy 
The type of barnum and baily sensationalism and hype with absolutely no truth
Pure entertainment masquerading as useful information  
 Sorry idk if you get the references 😅
