All in all, good, but slightly skewed

06/26/2021

Ignatius R.

I enjoy hearing different points of view, but there is s relatively subtle skew towards one side. Bias goes further than how a story is reported. Bias is reflected in stories chosen. While some episodes feature authors who favor more individual rights and autonomy, there is a definite lean towards authors who favor more collective power and state authority. These days, however, one must take what one can get.
Immigration

It’s not anti-immigration, we are just about all Legal immigrants to the US. It’s anti-Illegal immigration. People can come to the US, but they have to do it legally, with skills, ready to work, pay taxes, assimilate & become US citizens.
