It's the way news coverage is going in the social-media age unfortunately.

It's less and less about presenting the facts of the news - or both sides of a story - and then letting the viewers make up their minds; and more about presenting an agenda that they know there is a group of viewers that want that. It's aimed at a minority of the public but that is enough to keep the channel in business.

You could say the same about many of the newspapers in this country.

The media as we knew it is not needed anymore. The people have their own voices now on social media. We're living in the Information wars.
