the blind leading the blind

   

      I, the same as many people in America, no longer believe the news, or even believe we have news anymore. News, is about manipulation than about truth or events.
      Sometime, if you are bored, do a little research on your favorite news reporter, usually you will be amazed at what you find. Many, if not most, have no education in journalism. They usually are in their positions, due to politics, or family connections etc. . . The only cable channel I get for news, (other than Russia and China channels, which is where I learn much of what is actually happening in the world) is MSNBC. Pathetic, so bad . .I especially get a chuckle out of a morning program . . .Velshi and Ruhle. They talk politics and money, and brag about their knowledge of banking and money . .they should, Stephanie Ruhle during the Recession was a president or assistant president in a Boston bank. She is the WORLD LEADER in the sale of credit derivatives from 1999-2010 . .the same kind of derivatives that caused the recession in the early 2000's.
     Velshi, is a Canadian Muslim, his father was the first Indian voted into the legislative assembly of Ontario. Velshi, who moved to America in 2001, lectures guests and the audience about American history, and what it means to be American. His wife, owns and runs a hedge fund company in Philadelphia.
       The thing I find so amusing about their program, is Ruhle and Velshi, both talk about how awful Wall Street is, and they were both creatures of Wall Street, until their money made and they could leave. They also talk about main street America, like they have spent some time there. . .they haven't.
       So anyway, do a little research, Morning Joe, Joe Scarborough has also led quite the life.
