70% of what's wrong with out political climate is someone has to pump out garbage opinion pieces/cartoons/podcasts just because their has to be content to consume. Even the horse race pieces that are ostensibly "news" but really just framing of the race at a given time.

"Boss, there's nothing new to make a carton about"

"Well Biden's age and Trump's court stuff are in the news name drop those. Oh and make it favorable to the one guy, because your peer is making one favorable to the other."
