My opinion of modern media. It's no longer about reporting the news, it's about creating the news. That's just wrong!
The Media the Left and Right
By Franklin Price
8/19/2018
The media, the left and right,
As different as are day and night
They most often disagree
To keep the truth from you and me
CNN and FOX are the extremes
They both are nightmares, not sweet dreams
The former, left as it can be
The latter right for all to see
From the truth, they pick and choose
The people are the ones who lose
If one is picked close to one's side
We're taken on a one way ride
Searched high and low for slantless news
Reporting truths and not the views
Thus far I've not had much success
The media is such a mess
Seems I remember in the day
News was reported for their pay
Was not created right or left
What I see now makes me bereft
