A Nation Divided

I see trouble on the near horizon-- A nation divided just is not couth, Unfortunately, reason is wizen Frivolous theories accepted as truth, Intentionally misguiding our youth Disgraceful political grandstanding, Foundation institutions crash-landing News media is shaping opinions, Honestly, journalism notwithstanding Common folks now political minions.

When the standards for using the word "news" were eliminated we began sliding down the road of integrity; I wish we could get those standards back.

Yep, I wish we could go back to the days of Edward R. Murrow and Huntley and Brinkley, don't know if we ever will.
