(15,303 posts)I can't stand being preached to by anyone with an obvious bias - left/right/etc.
Generally tired, mainly old, usually unexceptional, always ready to argue.
As far as I'm concerned, I want to get my news/opinions from a format where I can switch rapidly between outlets, drill down when I want to (and far further than what you'll get from air-broadcast) and sometimes comment on what I'm seeing/hearing. T.V. and radio are goners. Sorry - it's been fun but no longer effective.
