So we were up at the in-law's for Christmas. I don't watch MSM (with the exception of Tucker), and sure as hell don't watch ABC/CBS/NBC/CNN/MSNBC. My FIL is 96 and a WWII Infantry vet, while MIL is 87. SIL was there too and while relaxing after dinner and sipping a little bourbon the national news came on (I think it was CBS).
I kept count: four of the first five stories were either directly about COVID or had them as the "lead" or cause of the story's issue. I had to keep my mouth shut as I love my in-laws dearly (SIL is okay) and they didn't like Trump and voted Biden. They usually do vote "D" anyway. Way I look at it my FIL has, if anyone has, earned a right to vote however the hell he wants, but I don't have to agree with it. The repeated repeated repeated (am I repeating myself like CBS?) COVID theme was overwhelming to me. Although it hastened a re-fill of my bourbon, I'm sure my blood pressure spiked a bit!
While I knew it existed, the depth of the dousing with hyperbole shocked and angered me. I stepped onto the "other side of the line" and was appalled.
We're fvcked........
