Political Commentary on TV
Political commentary on television has transformed from a simple method of gaining information, to a media dominated by newscasts formed off of political opinions. Todays major television news programs are almost all centered around political parties. While some are more extreme than others, these opinionated facts seem to cloud the truth from the American people. More and more people today are using these biased resources as the basis of many of their political beliefs and decisions. I believe it is essential for voters to receive unbiased information in order to make a proper and fair voting decisions. Although some TV broadcasts can be highly opinionated, there are still newscasters that do a great job getting the point across in a funny and entertaining way. John Stewart is one example of someone who can attract an audience using humor but also delivers an interesting, less biased story.In this video, he does a great job of pointing out the major flaws of other biased newscasters such as Glenn Beck.
