But honestly taking the pride of a people and dividing a house so that it cannot stand ~mental genocide is a real and prevalent problem and should be addressed and solved. The dead are lucky ~they're already dead and need not worry but the living have responsibilities to take care of. Bashing each other is not one of those responsibilities ~putting a bandaid but not addressing the problem is the main (irresponsible) action taken but most of all finger pointing and blame laying while it may be true also detracts from solution creation.

 

I agree that Fox isn't a real news outlet but even so it has viewers and they should be held responsible for what they're calling news. Freedom of speech doesn't entail irresponsibility as so many erroneously believe (or wish were the case). Just as there should be checks and balances with our government, there should be checks and balances within reporting...not just "balancing" by arbitrarily saying that these are opposing sides and they both have air time -this equals "balance" (*it does NOT).
