Numero Uno...

Americans' trust and confidence in the mass media "to report the news fully, accurately and fairly" has dropped to its lowest level in Gallup polling history, with 32% saying they have a great deal or fair amount of trust in the media.

Over the history of the entire trend, Americans' trust and confidence hit its highest point in 1976, at 72%, with investigative journalism regarding Vietnam and the Watergate scandal.

After staying in the low to mid-50s through the late 1990s, Americans' trust in the media has fallen slowly and steadily.

Republicans who say they have trust in the media has plummeted to 14% from 32% a year ago. This is easily the lowest confidence among Republicans in 20 years.  It is also possible that Republicans think less of the media as a result of Trump's sharp criticisms of the press.

As the communication expanded greatly since the Nineties, the Trust in the Media has deteriorated drastically.  It is a Negative Correlation.   Just a thought.

Being...*?

Italy's Emma Morano turned 117 on Tuesday, November 29. Born in 1899, she is the oldest person in the world and one of just a handful to have lived through three centuries.

A key to her longevity, she tells the New York Times, is being single. After a troubled marriage, Morano kicked her husband out in 1938, a time when separation was rare and divorce illegal."I didn't want to be dominated by anyone," Morano tells the Times. She never remarried despite having "plenty of suitors."

Of course, there's more to Morano's staying power than her independence. She also credits her longevity to genetics and to an unconventional diet.

"Emma has always eaten very few vegetables, very little fruit," her doctor tells AFP.

Single, Diet, Exercise.... What not to like?

Refugee...*?

 

An attack at Ohio State University was being investigated as a possible act of terrorism after a student, an 18-year-old Somali refugee, injured eleven people, first with a car and then with a butcher's knife.

The suspect "intentionally" drove over a curb, striking multiple pedestrians, before emerging with a knife and stabbing several people.

The suspect was identified as a Somali national and legal permanent resident of the US.

In September, a 20-year-old Somali-American stabbed 10 people at a St. Cloud, Minnesota, shopping mall before being shot to death by an off-duty officer.

Who are we letting in the country, giving them a legal status, then  spent our taxes to chase their terrorist activities day and night?    If we accept Refugee, then all the comers will claim that status. 

Just a thought.

Winter...?

What's Up...?

The Media is looking for anything to report on.... and so far mostly nothing of value to the American People as it is intended. The words itself such as Migrants, Immigrants, Illegal Immigrants, Refugees and Illegal, are mixed and matched together.
This one , I thought, represents any thing but value...?

Just In...
