What We Never Saw from the Legacy Media for Four Years

Exemplified by this local news Colorado interview with President Obama . Real questions, with a bias towards tough questions. And, our president handles them well enough, even if noticeably displeased.

Legacy media, would it have been so hard? Four years? Oh, boo-hoo, the White House press operation made it kind of difficult?

More Newsweeks to come, and more massive-ratings nights for so-so Fox News, until you get a clue. Until we see the firing and hiring that show you’re serious about serving all of America.
