Well that’s the thing. Do meaningless things make the national news everyday in October? Yes. And here we are in June. They’re gonna throw more money at us until we forget about 2016. And since that’s not going to happen, it’s all this.

The most credible corporate-funded media outlet in the US.

You intentionally misread, that's so fucking disrespectful.

The Pew Research Center is not a news organization, and is controlled by a nonprofit.

I don’t think they misread or were disrespectful.
