Notes About The Poem

It's interesting to watch the media scramble with today's politics. They're finding it hard to believe that there is a real revolution going on to change the establishment in Washington. I don't know why they're fighting the truth. Wake up American media!!!!!!

 

 

The Media

The Media
By Franklin Price
2/21/2016

The Media is quite confused
Finding they can't make the news
The internet's ahead of them 
And their lopsided views

Some media Republican
Some are Democrat 
The truth is in the middle
Where society is at

The internet will give us news
Eventually the truth
By the time we get down to it
Will be much longer in the tooth

Social sites simply satisfy
Common curiosity
Personal preponderance presented 
For other members there to see

Doesn't mean that truth is found
When common ground sought
Just someone else believes the same
We've found ones with common thought

Don't blindly trust the social sites
Or reported news that's slanted
For if it's found,  it's not the truth
It's easily recanted
