Do you appreciate the power
do you comprehend, and understand
news that isn't real, but believed
by woman, child, and man
Gullible and easy marks, our media today
they'll swallow any crap they're fed
and don't check, or let facts, get in the way
Outrage and anger, rampant
our feelings, played and used
by monsters real, not perceived
and the news mongers, confused
I have no sympathy for those, so amused
every broadcast, text, and useless news
and in the end, everyone and thing, abused

How can we trust even the simplest story anymore? Answer is, ya can't :/
