News Media has a reputation of spinning facts and sometimes even blatantly lying to push the agenda of their owners(who are often in on it with political candidates/parties). The "journalist" are either ignorant to this are are willingly deceitful.
We as a country can not unite if people are not being told the truths on all issues.
The News Corporations do this purposely so that the population can be distracted by their "issues" and can pass their legislation without the public knowing.
