Mindmeld,
I'd rather just be given a title like "Congress Passes Tax Change Bill and Trump Signs It" and then an executive summary of the key changes with zero bias, slants, or opinions in the summary or headline.
Well said, MM, well said.

I remember when the tax bill was first being proposed. My wife was looking for articles detailing exactly what would change and how it would affect us as Californians.

Instead she got a whole bunch of articles on how Trump would supposedly benefit from the proposals. Cause you know, THAT'S what matters. Not the fact that we now have a limit of $10K on SALT deductions. Not the fact that the cap on mortgage interest deductions is being lowered. (That matters a ton here in Silicon Valley, where houses are crazy expensive.)

No, our oh-so-esteemed media decided that we would be more interested in how Trump would benefit. Personally we don't give a damn, since we both know that Trump will do Trump things.

But to all the liberal folks out there, it matters a ton, because you know, they're poor because Trump is rich.
