Well, howdy there internet people?

Since you can't see some of the visual elements in this one,

I feel like I should include a notice to let you know that once you hear the dateline,

the part that is obviously satire is in fact satire and no that's not a real commercial.

All right, let's get started.

Well, howdy there, internet people, it's bow again.

So tonight's going to be a little bit different.

We're going to do something on this channel tonight that we've never done before anything even remotely

like it. We're going to conduct a little experiment and I have some other people

who you may know helping me out with this. Tonight we are going to talk about the

news like we normally do. However, tonight we're actually

going to talk about the news, the media itself.

You know, today's media, they often bring in experts who have a clear

conflict of interest with the subject matter that's being talked about and they don't really disclose it. They often bring in people

who are not experts, but they portray them as if they are. And it seems as though the mission of today's media, rather than what it used

to be, you know, it used to be to convey information, provide contacts, and alongside

all of that convey calm.

There's a lot of scary stuff in the world.

There's no reason for everything to be terrifying.

Put it in perspective.

But it's become so partisan and so, well, just out of whack, that everything has to be shaped as it's almost

the end of the world.
