My grandson, (soon to be age 18) refuses to watch TV news shows. “I don’t trust or believe ANY of ‘em!” he says.

The only people I know still watching the news or even TV are my parents (boomers).  Pretty much everyone else has turned off TV and gets any news via internet sights.  This does not bode well for legacy media.

There’s little to no difference in the reliability of TV network news and that found on the internet. I find no less bias and no more actual documentation in supposed news/journalism from any outlet!! 
 

It seems that nearly everything reported is done so from some self serving perspective!

Yep. I prefer Everybody Loves Raymond, Andy Griffith, and MASH reruns before watching the news.
