Do people in the UK actually believe the obvious nonsense that they are constantly fed by their media?

    If your suggesting that all our news channels are tabloid nonsense, then your sadly misinformed.  If you watch either Channel 4 News or BBC News, you'll get a reasonably unbiased set of news stories.  ITV is mainly for the people that read the Sun, Mirror, Mail and Telegraph snooze papers.

    Europe is a paradox. They are five years 

    ahead of USA in detecting lies on TV...

    but there were also targeted early so they 

    may not survive. It's almost too late for them. 

    The world's only hope is Trump; and Europe knows this.

    The UK media is entertainment not News.

    We Britishers simply couldn't give a flying fcuk.

    No of course not.  Our newspapers are for entertainment purposes only.  You wouldn't believe the stories about meteors and things in the Daily Express would you?  Or the cancer warnings in the Daily Mail?   That one about the double decker bus found on the moon might be true though.

    Probably not.  This is media, and I don’t believe you.  Social media is the worst.
