Most of it is as fake as WWE and I feel sorry that Americans are subjected to what they call news, especially Fox. I'm not saying that Canadian news is a whole lot better but listening to other views such as BBC and even Russia Today can expand my horizons while understanding that everyone has an agenda. It's just that American news no longer seems interested in giving news but is more interested in ratings and playing to the lowest common denominator to achieve their political ends.
You don't think European news channels do exactly that? They pioneered it. Especially the British.
