Jesus Christ... All of our cable news stations are fake news at this point. I've basically switched exclusively to BBC World for this reason. I turn on the news and learn about famine in South Sudan, a crumbling cease fire in Donetsk, etc. On CNN I learn about a fucking statue in a snow storm.

CNN = petty bullshit (with a somewhat left slant)
Fox News = Right wing bullshit
MSNBC = Left wing bullshit

The statue is supposed to be there for a week or so and its there with city permission. Now some passerbys have fucked with the statute though. Some have humped it and other have put Trump hats on it

there's no threshold anymore. anything can be considered "news", and most of it is very blase.

You know what bothers me about the statue? She's trying to stop the bull. The bull represents good economic times. But maybe that's by design from the pro-feminist anti-capitalist Left. They should have had her riding on a bear.
