Might have been my question
Saagar and Krystal run a weekly 'answering session' reserved for their subscribers. I'm one of their paid subscribers so I get to watch it.
In this week's session, one question could have been mine. Sounded just like my shit, but it wasn't me unless I've been sleepwalking or something.
Question: "I grew up in the era when the Fairness Doctrine kept media honest. Is there any chance of returning to the Fairness Doctrine?"
Saagar's answer is unsatisfying but unfortunately valid. The web "jumbles everything up", so the best chance of fairness is finding a source that tries to be fair. When you find such a source, support it. (So I do.)
Can't argue with that. Saagar does try to stay above mechanical partisanship, and usually succeeds. Krystal is firmly inside the D echo chamber but halfway tries to see outside the fishbowl.
