I’ve been reading NPR along with some foreign sites like the guardian and Al Jazeera and it really feels like the US is drinking its own koolaid WRT what gets covered and what doesn’t.
Many issues that a majority of the population has an agreed position get no time and discussion in the news or by our elected representatives.
Other reporting brings to mind the expression that’s something like: the news is great except when I know more about the topic than the journalist is presenting.
