US News Media is Broken [View all]

At least if about 15 minutes ago not a single major US news channel was covering Syria and the falling of a brutal dictator.
You had to go to international media like BBC News to find live coverage.
Absolutely embarrassing. "Freedom of the Press" is pointless if the press no longer wants to be free but embraces dictatorship.
