The Sunday morning TV news talk shows theoretically give the nation a great opportunity to learn about the big issues facing us, and what our leaders are doing to serve our short-term and long-term needs. After all, citizens must be properly informed, if they are to make intelligent electoral choices when the time comes.
So how are our weekly Sunday morning TV shows doing in helping us to learn, and think? Dreadfully!
With the exception of the Maria Bartiromo’s “Sunday Morning Futures” show, the other major TV talk shows are just plain embarrassing. If you’re unfamiliar with this show, here’s a recent excerpt:
Last Sunday was typical. Roughly 60% of the various major programs were devoted to the Mueller report, that took more than two years to produce, and came up with no conclusions of wrongdoing. About 20% of the showtimes were focused on discussing the potential impeachment of President Trump, who committed no crime. Only the final 20% of the showtime focused on real issues such as the proposed tariffs on Mexico to pressure that government to curb illegal immigration into the U.S., or the state of negotiations with China on our numerous trade disputes.
Because 80% of the showtime was wasted on the Russia hoax and the impeachment hoax, we were not educated about our very serious short-term and long-term national security issues.
For example, there were no discussions on any of the following, which actually do impact the American people:
- Iran’s escalating, illicit nuclear weapons program (which its supreme leader claimed he has forbidden)
- Iran’s estimated 450,000 worldwide operatives, especially in Africa and Latin America (but also inside the U.S.), and now in England, who engage in everything from narco-trafficking to terrorist attacks and cultural subversion
- The penetration of the Muslim Brotherhood (financed by Turkey & Qatar) into the U.S. through mosques & schools
- The penetration of U.S. universities by Saudi Arabia, the Muslim Brotherhood and China (more)
- The cause of Venezuela’s death spiral (socialism)
-
The most-assigned “economics” book on U.S. college campuses. The socialists’ penetration into all levels of U.S. schools (fun fact: “The Communist Manifesto” is the most-assigned “economics” book on U.S. college campuses, assigned more than twice as often as any other in this realm)
- The demographic war taking place through our border, with the associated introduction of diseases and lawlessness
- The illegal operations of sanctuary cities and states
So what’s going on? Why are our key Sunday talk shows miseducating the public? Why are they focused on non-issues, but not discussing the key real issues? Why are they dumbing down the population?
Apparently, the big TV networks think that the population can’t handle the heavy issues, and prefer instead to facilitate irrelevant but entertaining gossip discussions. Pretty sad, indeed.
Hopefully new competition will emerge – soon – to properly educate “we the people!”
