You don't watch Game of Thrones to learn about the middle ages. It's called fiction.

If you think the young generation isn’t heavily influenced by “comedy” shows such as SNL, or The Daily Show, or “late night” talk shows, or... ALL of which are extremely hostile to anything conservative and glowing on everything liberal/progressive, you’re fooling yourself.

The writers and hosts of the late night shows are all hardcore liberals who HATE conservatives. I don’t think many people would disagree with that.

As far as the younger generations, they’re obsessed with TikTok, Twitter, etc.

Me too! I would prefer Beavis and Butthead to most media of either side today.

I believe that you believe I was talking about Gen Z when I said younger Generation.

BTW, they ain't watching the CBS evening news for their 'information' (not that it's much different). Who do you think watches the Daily Show, anyway? Or the rest of them? There are a massive number of people who think they are well informed and only consume SNL/Daily Show/Late Nite/Twitter/TikTok/FB even. They 'branch out' to CNN :facepalm:

The bottom line is there simply isn't an unbiased, factual news source devoid of an agenda anymore. Walter Cronkite was a liberal, but no-one could tell until he was retired or dead. Journalism is dead, and has been for a while now.

I'm having trouble booking a flight on delta.com. Tried my IE, Edge, Firefox, Chrome, incognito/private on all those, and the mobile app. Anyone know anything?

Under the new tax code, can we itemize our ALPA dues as a deduction?

Not under Trump's TCJA, no. No more unreimbursed employee business expenses such as uniform items, union dues, job education etc. from 2018 to 2025 unless they change the law.
