Fake News 2
Another Tom Wright Opinion
1-1-2020
Our society is suffering,
because of all the fake news.
Many practice “spinning”,
while presenting their views.
Those reporting the news,
should remain non-aligned.
But seems everybody now days,
has an axe to grind.
Politicians and pundits,
aren’t alone in this debasing.
We can’t recognize the truth,
when it we are facing.
Some fill their day,
dispensing mostly idle chatter.
It’s ratings that counts,
and facts no longer matter.
Many have schemes to pull,
or have angles to play.
Because we’re now living,
In a post-truth society today.
