No Non-Partisan Political Information Is Spoken In News Reports

By Paulette Short


Non-partisan political information is that information that does not support one side of the debate over another. That is real hard to find in this day and age as there is very little of it to be had. The dominant news media does not even try to be objective as they were when they started out.

The unwillingness of the dominant media to do its job is appalling. There was a time, within the last century, when the press did the hard work and tried to get it right. They do not do that anymore as it is just easier to talk to their friends on Capitol hill, and in the various states, and repeat it verbatim so they do not lose those relationships. There are no longer balanced treatments.

Global warming, cooling or climate change, whatever the current words or phrase is, is treated as if the debate is over. There is no talk of the many thousands of scientists who have very solid facts disputing this issue. The media hand picks the spokes people from the ranks of those who would have us scared to death of carbon dioxide.

Since the media does not care about the US Constitution, it is important to remember from which perspective they publish their content. They do not care for the first amendment except as it pertains to their rights to print and broadcast their one sided, emotionally driven pieces. The second amendment holds no sway with them as their friends in Washington, and in many State houses, have nothing but contempt for much of the Constitution themselves.

There is no non political information being discussed at the several debates that are held across the country during the election cycle, either. The massive amounts of blanket statements means that the person talking does not want to deal with the actual facts of the discussion. They will also turn to emotional comments that preclude rational thought and that is purely political.

Getting correct, factual information should be easy if you are paying attention to what is being said. Ignore emotions, listen actively and pay attention to those things that are not blanket statements. Look at some of the websites that tell you they are non partisan and see who is writing the content. Most of the sites that suggest they are not partisan will give themselves away by supporting one candidate or policy over others.

When you are assaulted on all levels about something such as abortion or gun control, check it out. If you are truly wanting to get knowledge that is untainted by partisan politics, stay away from those who are supporting the elimination of something that has been a freedom. Stay away from those that have the worst things to say about those things you hold dear. If they can not get those right, they will not get the rest of it right either.

The need for non-partisan political information is vital for the continuation of the civil society. Without the means of distributing this type of knowledge, people have the wrong ideas promoted by the wrong people. There are a few news outlets that still try to get it right and those should be accessed frequently.
