“The television news media in America; the dumbing down of a nation!”
The mass media is dumbing down the news. I have often questioned where was the rest of
the story. All of the networked seem to
skim just the top of the story without providing the meat. If there is a story I want to know additional
information about, I often had to result to the Internet. I often questioned why this was being
done. Did they think American were not intellectual
enough to grasp the storyline? Or is it
that they do not know have the meat of the story themselves due to a lack of
investigative skills. They provide just
enough information to make use turn our head, but leave use wanting more. I found an article on Daily Kos. The name of the article is “The television
news media in America; the dumbing down of a nation!” The article speaks about how the big
corporations, such as General Electric, own the news broadcasting companies,
such as CNBC, NBC and MSNBC. They are not interested in reporting the news.
From the article and comments, I am not the only that is feeling cheated after
viewing the news on television.
