One thing that bothers me is when the Media (I’ll dignify it with neither “News” nor “Journalism”) gets focused on a single topic and you hear the same thing (normally wild speculation) over and over and over again. That’s when you need YouTube or Netflix or Duck Tales on Disney XD (Voiced by Who Two- Tennant).
Oh, and also all the time. Once I had a serious news habit, thought Donahue was the bomb. Then I quit cold turkey for a long time, until Keith really.

The phrase itself is a pompous contradiction in terms.
