The media has so many problems going on with them. They are so very biased and each person in the media is biased in their own way and on certain topics. That is because they are human and do think on occasion. Although most of the time it seems that they are being told what to say and how to act. I have to agree that I think the average American has no interest in either party for president. I have been trying to find a good person to write in.

The parties are so interested in pandering to certain demographics that they will end up losing the average American. I consider myself an average American and I have no interest in either candidate. What is an average American? To me, it’s someone who embraces ideas from both parties. But it seems that as the decades have passed, each party has more and more extremists taking the parties to the extreme left or right. More people, than not, are in the center, but the parties seem to have forgotten that leaving many voters feeling disenfranchised.

Polemics and strong arguments are part of the process by which we debate. Each party is going to victimize themselves as well to play on the possible compassion of swing voters. This is Real Politik 101, nothing new of course.

As much as journalists would like to claim that they are neutral or objective, the reality is they aren’t because they are human beings who have thoughts, concerns and most importantly opinions. Journalists also have to report to their managing editors and managing editors have their bosses, so everyone’s opinions eventually leak into a news piece whether they like it or not. Objectivity is a myth.

They should stop going on about bias in the media completely, cause when they do, it just fires up 50-page debates which change subject every hour on the hour. They can claim to be neutral, but it’s actually impossible to be politically neutral unless you adopt a “Don’t give a shit” stance on everything.
