I can't even watch news shows here anymore, because of the one sided reporting and propaganda. When you know what is going on in reality, watching the "news" on TV is extremely annoying because of all the half-truths, the biased selection what to air, which side of which story they choose to depict, etc. Objectivity doesn't exist in mainstream media.
