You are right....eyeballs and advertising is what drives
"news/entertainment" programming, not facts or unbiased or actual
journalism. Maybe the VOA, PBS and the BBC still provide good news
reporting. As one friend in news broadcasting told me regarding this
thread..."Media freaks and hacks posing as journalists." report the "news".

news isn't worth watching. Must be a lot of stupid/ignorant people in the
country that watch this garbage.

public office, haha.
This is not a political forum. Please refrain from these kinds of WAAAAY
off-topic posts.
OTOH thoughtful posts on tower and HF antenna construction questions
are always welcome.
