The American corporate  media can no longer be trusted to report the news. Their coverage is highly selective and pervasively slanted to further their narrow corporate agenda, as well as to support their political backers, the leaders of the Republican Party. We must seek out alternative news sources in order to stay informed about what is really happening  in our country and in the world.
