The News Game

No news is good news we’ve all heard that before
that said  I’d like less bills when I open my mailbox door.
If it bleeds it leads  with more than enough yellow journalism 
where facts are shifted and twisted then shown through a tainted prism
then a little tease to keep you hanging through long commercial breaks
this isn’t the news we’re being abused and it’s giving me a headache.
