    Exactly. Anyone saying ā€œboth sidesā€ has never watched themā€¦ They all have one thing in common, greed. If it makes more money, theyā€™ll televise it.

      Your statement is non sequitur. You say they arenā€™t the same. But then flip to explain exactly how we were implying the same. Or at least exactly how I was implying they were the same. Though I assume the other person intended similar. I think we agree far more than we disagree here. And that this should just be marked up to another example of the wealthy poisoning democracy and discourse. Making people feel a reflexive need to always be on defense than not able to legitimately criticize. Because letā€™s be clear. Even if we often find what CNN and MSNBC do to be more acceptable or less damaging. Theyā€™re still doing it.

        Where did I disagreed with you. All I was adding is that fox is in it to push dangerous ideals and greed, MSNBC and CNN are in it for greed.
