Page breaks (and less of the piece) would interest me enough to read David's posting. Too long like that one, not going to even try.
But, out of respect for David's efforts (for which he has equal rights to posting his side as Kevin does), at least David's are not full of Kevin's nothing-but-amatuerishly-rude overdone execration in his replies to David. As much as Kevin says he hates Trump, it is surprising that he sinks to Trump's cringeworthy level.
But, some good 'tips' (for everyone) I've borrowed from a respected source regarding the posting/pasting (and interpreting) of social media as "news":
- Be wary of coverage from blatantly partisan outlets. Painting one side as good and the other as evil colors a piece as an "us versus them" narrative. Situations aren't always as framed, e.g. a place "went out of business", when what actually occured is left out: "the owners closed the business and reopened a new successful one in the same [or different, or whatever] location."
- If the writer's opinion is in a "news story", it's not a news story. The writer inserting their own opinion should only happen in opinion/analysis pieces and be clearly marked as such.
- Don't depend on social media for news. People do share actually fact-checked news articles on social media, but they also share hot takes, hyperpartison caterwauling and straight up mis/disinformation. Examples: Democratic Underground, (obvious), Daily Wire (right wing media company), Daily Mail (tabloid Conservative), Fox News (admittedly conservative), Facebook, etc. are not recommended as unbiased sources. What is recommended is the editorial page of a respected state-wide newspaper with respected editorial writers of a balance of both liberal and conservative persuasions.
