Just depends on what your expectations are.

it's almost like letting corporations control absolutely everything is a bad idea.

also yet another example of how this country really started going to shit under Reagan.

Getting your news from individuals seems like a better idea?!? Sounds like MICH's path to enlightenment. "If it isn't happening in my line of sight then it isn't happening!"

Every President since Reagan has just been some reiteration of Reagan

Not necessarily “individuals,” but at least some journalistic entity with half a donut’s worth of integrity, who tries to just report news without going full corporatist propaganda about it

Even if everything you report has complete integrity, you cannot report everything that happens in the world and cannot afford to even try without being a giant corporation. And no matter how much integrity you have, there will always be some slant to what you choose to report and what you choose not to report.

Until then, refer to this chart that has existed for years and try out a different source from the top of the pyramid from time to time. I read Reuters every day:

But I thought Reagan was trying to be FDR.

Imagine if FDR tried to end the Great Depression by just giving tax cuts to Japhy.

Did you know we had Presidents in the 1700s, 1800s, and 1900s?
Some who sucked as bad if not worse than Trump and Biden.

i don't care that we had bad presidents 100-200 years ago. i care that we have bad presidents today.

Unlikeable Reagan implies that there was something likeable about Original Reagan and that's really bothering me about this graphic, lol.
