I often wondered why there is no news network that just tells the news. No agenda, no opinions, just facts. You would think it would be very advertiser friendly and would win viewers from across the political spectrum. I'm guessing the issues are as follows.
1) As soon as the outlet gets a large enough audience, someone buys it to take advantage of that trusting audience and remove the threat.
2) Finding actual journalists, instead of activists who write, is likely impossible. I guess the people who go into it and actually get a break are those who slot into the liberal hive mind ... or they work for Fox.
3) I'm guessing that people actually like opinion based reporting. That just straight facts is dry and boring or that people like a large dose of conformation bias in their news stories.
