All of our daily lives are full. Work, family, exercise, home maintenance, and keeping up with personal finances compete with exploratory learning about our complicated lives. We also owe ourselves some downtime reading for pure pleasure or knowledge expansion. Books and online sources are the real bargain today. Most are free.
Television is the last place we should turn for news. There’re too few sources owned by even fewer companies. We all know the acronyms, from ABC to PBS. Tabloid news sites like FoxNews are not much better because “fair and balanced” in a monopolistically liberal media world achieves only a political center of gravity that is still decidedly far left.
Conservative viewpoints are buried. Anything the president says is boxed in by nasty detractors before ordinary viewers have a chance to examine their own thoughts. Programming transitions move you on immediately. Mind-wasting commercials make sure that your mental life is lost before you know it.
Busy with personal lives or not, your very first allegiance to knowing about news that’s importance is free and not time-consuming. Real Donald Trump is a miracle of modern life, connecting us to verbatim messages from the our highest elected official, the President of the United States. He personally selects short videos from national news sources that you can listen to, with absolutely no commercials. Joining anything isn’t required. Reading comments isn’t required either, or even recommended for most.
It’s not like reading or listening to the President on Twitter will expose you to just one side of an argument, especially in a media world that is 99% owned by orthodox liberals. That is, the danger is just the reverse.
The White House is the corollary Twitter site that should always be your second allegiance to regain your political sanity and sense of social well-being. Consider these moments away from the pervasive liberal propaganda machine as essential antidotes to the growing menace that our broadcast media and print monopoly has become.
