      Add this to the giant list of things to fix after the fascist revolution is defeated.

      Companies should not be able to market ‘Entertainment news shows’ or ‘Opinion news shows’ as actual fact-based objective reality ‘News’. Just like manufacturers can’t label peanut butter as ‘allergen free’, we understand that product labels are important information for a consumer so that they can make informed choices.
