I understand hating opinion columns, I say this as an opinion columnist, but reporting is good and if American democracy is going to survive we desperately need reporting to expose corruption.

2. Reporting?

Sorry, that ship has sailed. MSM, which is nothing but right wing, will sane wash everything the moron spews out of his mouth. It will be nothing but unicorn farts and puppy dog tails about the country as soon as he's installed.
Today, threatening the 14th Amendment, and crickets.

3. I know, there is still so much denial.

The US media is the PutinGOP propaganda machine.

4. Who's going to do the reporting on corruption

when all the news organizations have been bought up by corrupt billionaires?

5. Then bury democracy. Script readers will not be reporting on anything.

They have a script given them and they enforce that script. Anything else they do is simply an illusion.

6. Mother Jones?

can't think of anyone else really. Rolling Stone left the dock long ago.

7. Reporting to expose corruption means no8

Unless there are trials, convictions and real punishments to go with them...

9. I love Jong-Fast but corruption WAS exposed. In quantity. Nothing happened. Wait -

I’m sorry. I’m wrong. Something DID happen. People decided to vote in favor of more corruption. They voted it in. They CHOSE corruption.
