I hate the fact that Anderson Cooper talks to us for 364 days a year like we're children and then acts like a ####### fool who can't handle a tequila shot on a NYE celebration. But at least he's not bringing on sideshow freaks for Tarot card readings.

If you can't stand Anderson Cooper, avoid the video because it'll just make you hate him more.

Inflation is down, gas is under $3, us oil production is at an all time high, unemployment is low, down jones hit like 6 record highs last month, they're about to cut interest rates. We're like a week away from y'all posting that all this is a deep state conspiracy to help Biden get reelected and your source will probably be the guy with the psychic predicting Trump's death.

you must admit.

Biden says Congress needs to give him money for the border crisis ... yet, when states try to handle it own their own (which is free for the federal government) Biden's DOJ sues the states.

Notice how they never engage with what's presented? See how they just move from one bullet point to the next?

"OH fox news is airing psychics? Well CNN is jedi mind tricking you about the economy. Oh the economy is fine? Well let's talk about immigration." Reminds me of whoever was on here trying to say that the FBI tricked MAGA morons into storming the Capitol last night.

He told you the timing is impeccable. What part of that didn't you understand. The good times won't last past the election. I guarantee it.

'inflation is down' only means the rate of increase is less, but it is still increasing.

what you are paying today = (1+IR20)*(1+IR21)*(1+IR22)*(1+IR23) as much as in 2019, which is
(1.0123)*(1.047)*(1.08)*(1.032) = 1.181

or

18.1% more since 2019. If you buy groceries, your opinion will be that it is even higher than 18%.

...which is balanced against the rate at which wages increased, yes?

Lessee here...well, lookit. It appears we definitely got clobbered between March of '21 and January of '23, when inflation outpaced wage growth...but since February wage growth has outpaced inflation. This past month inflation was 3.1%...but wage growth was 5.2%. And before March 2021 wage growth was still outpacing inflation too.

Dunno, but it almost looks kinda like that inflation bump all the economists were predicting during COVID because folks were at home and not working across the world - and especially in China - was in turn working its way through the system.

But sure, yeah. Politics.

Yeah, Watters was serious with the psychic. Good grief, Watters is always poking fun at others and himself. This was about as serious a piece of news as Anderson Cooper throwing down shots and giggling the night away.

Both were dumb, light hearted segments.

Sure Fox is slanted, but so is CNN and most certainly MSNBC. Yes, I know because I at times watch all three to see what the takes are.

MSNBC is especially entertaining today with the take on Gay's resignation from Harvard. Racism, racism, racism.

I typically watch NBC news, subscribe to the Washington Post and Apple News, but do watch Fox also as they do cover valid stories that are absolutely neglected by the above outlets and others.

I would suggest everyone shop around for news coverage, but Jesse Watters appearance with a psychic does not define Fox News.

Where do you obtain your information, serious question?

But seriously, fox news is the only TV news I watch (#### you military), I let my guys listen to WMAL when it's slow cause they love them some Dan Bongino, as part of my job I have to read the "early bird" wire that comes across the SIPR which is like a curated collection of news articles that are pertinent to what we do, and most everything else I stumble across on Twitter. What I really miss about pre-Elon Twitter is you would get top replies that would challenge claims, now you've got to work a lot harder to find anything like that.

Pat firehose-of-falsity crap, there. In un-banning known bad actors and disinformation peddlers, Elon loosed the bots and troll farms. Whose entire job is to flood the information space with so much bullsh!t nobody can possibly sift through all the excrement to find a nugget of genuine truth.

Which, of course, completely destroys the ability for a cyber community to exchange legit information. Which is the whole point of freedom of speech to begin with.

Rock on, Elon. You paragon of truth and freedom you.

Considering some of the recent defamation suits, it might.

Honestly, it kind of defines cable news as a whole at this point: Dumbed down with stupidity because they know who is watching.
