Turning on the news has been super depressing, as the members of the media, even on “respectable” news shows (Meet the Press, Face the Nation), are not pushing back on mis and disinformation - and not calling out their guests’ spewing lies (Johnson and Stefanik). Disgusting!

I did not like that either especially on Meet the Press. Stefanic and Johnson were outrageously irresponsible in their rhetoric. Pure lies and the moderator seemed so sensationalistic and emotional. The bright spot was Liz Chaney on Face the Nation who called out their lies.
Why, pray tell, does a "Harvard" graduate garner more stature than, let's say, a Michigan Graduate? Does graduating at the bottom of one's Harvard class mean more than graduating with honors from Michigan? I could be alone in this, but I DON'T THINK SO.
I grew up just a few miles from Yale University. I would have liked to go there, but that was never going to happen. No money and no scholarships. Still, after my return from duty in Vienna in 1976 I visited some friends on campus and was pretty shocked at how unaware - more unconcerned - they were about history or current events. Their "superior" attitude did not complement their lack of intelligence. I still experience that today and it is a shame.
Leave it to Liz. No coward she. Stefanic and Johnson are deliberate liars, who want their agenda no matter what, even if it ruins the country. They are without conscience.
I stopped calling those programs (and others like them) "news" decades ago. They are not and never have been. They are opinion showcases for both presenters and "guests". Not news, even in MSM territory.

Meet the Press. What a waste.
Harvard strikes back again - on both sides of that conversation. Mendacity all around.

Sorry Joyce. I was keeping with the spirit of your loss to Barb McQuade.
I have met very few Harvard grads that this San Francisco State grad can't run intellectual rings around.

Why the "ruling class" keeps going downhill.
Interesting. I never once considered them part of the "ruling classs."
Yes Frankom, a total waste. I was disgusted.

I am a staunch liberal but I would vote Cheny over Trump ANY day!!
Thanks 🙏 again Joyce. Great photo !! What a loyal friend !! This counts.
Liz is a rock star!
Exactly
