Not sure how many of you saw the Donald's news conference today. He really laid into the media.....especially CNN and "fake news". Kinda bizarre......and worth watching.

I was thinking that if Trump gets a second term and enough votes to pass laws through the legislation he should go after the media and break up their Monopoly. They broke up ATT because there was not enough competition and there is no doubt there is not enough media outlets. The current media does not serve the countries people and I think their could have an argument to do something about it.

There's no real media Monopoly anymore. Maybe on TV, but that is quickly getting replaced by aggregaters like Drudge, bloggers, tweeters, youtubers, etc. I'm shocked cable TV still exists as it does.

We have our own local school board scum bags throwing around the fake news of doom and gloom about our high school, saying they need another 52 million for a new school. It will be vote number 4 on they same subject. They scammed the people with a 20 million dollar bond the last time for a $11 million dollar elementary school 2 years ago. Now they have their grubby fingers out again! But old buckchaser is ready I have my truck and signs ready to go again! LOL

The trends are good but there are still many people who get there news from the major news outlets. I agree those who have the will and technology can get there news for the web but were not close yet.

Mo--Is that referendum Milaca schools? Mora. Its their 4th try! They keep wasting our time and money after they have been told No numerous times! But that is what the union wants them to do. Keep wasting our fucking time so the "NO" people finally give up. One school district in southern MN has voted over 10 times on the same referendum. The money that is wasted is unreal with these fucking scam elections called a "Special Election"

We have been bamboozled here in Big Lake by the schools a number of times. They just keep coming at us, and some things pass and some dont.
I have lived here 15 years and I should look it up, but I think my taxes have gone up 3 times with significant increases due to passages of these BS referendums.

I hear you... Minnewaska has passed many referendums, they now have a newer school, brand new baseball field, track, tennis courts and football field (unfortunately the football field grass was done wrong and it looks like pasture)...so they might have to play all homes games in Alexandria for a second year.
