I’ve watched 9News since the days when there were anchor reporters like Carl Akers. They were true journalists who reported facts and data, not feelings and propaganda; when there was a distinct line between reporting and editorializing.
We stopped watching TV almost ten years ago. Our news ... Show more comes from sources we trust to be the least biased and who report discovered, fully substantiated facts, not opinion or here say.
I use the 9News App. for two reasons; consistent and well researched weather reporting and local high school / college sports reports. In my opinion, the rest of the reporting is, for the most part, laundered, sanitized, propagandized verbage and rhetoric that appeals to the emotions. There is little or no basis on fact, logic and research that is unbiased and well documented.
There is a real problem with the live feed. It shuts down for no apparent reason, sometimes right in the middle of a report.
Finally, how many times do you think I really want to hear or watch canned fillers about some jack wagon who decided to travel the US to play miniature golf. Or, listen to the tedious, emotional story of two cancer survivors second wedding?
And I am truly fed up with the overblown, politically whitewashed coverage of a pro football team whose players rank third in the number of arrests within the NFL? Why is that fact not reported?
