Pompous Lester, "The world we live in" is more distrustful because of the media (said every survey). Get 1 big story right before patting yourself on the back, dude.

Lester Holt channeled his inner Obama to tell us the media has a responsibility to cover news to protect public health and safety. Really?

• Well, the media can start by not covering police involved shootings with "experts" who insist racism is to blame before evidence is presented.
• Or, that arguments are "unsupported" because journalists refuse to cover events--or wait until after an event has stopped damaging society before they post the piece as a footnote on page 93.
• The media STILL covers Rep. Sheila Jackson-Lee who (in a Congressional hearing) stated that Michael Brown was a victim of racist policing. President Obama and Eric Holder sent a huge team of investigators and came back empty "racism" handed. Jackson-Lee chided AG William Barr for not re-opening ANOTHER Obama-era shooting, that of Tamir Rice.
• America, keep electing Soros prosecutors and we will end up putting the Civil War on trial one day. BTW, why don't real-time Chicago shootings matter?
• If Dr. Fauci was in charge of fire control and told us the NYC fire "was less than a barbecue grill" and "fire extinguishers don't work" yet the country burned like it has during the Covid pandemic would people still listen to his "wisdom"?

Ratings are cash, are news networks hurting so badly that they have to prostitute themselves? Put your big-boy pants back on, Lester...
