Nick's indignance is like flak over a target - it gets heaviest when you're right on target.

I get people like Faran (heck, I do), but she's nothing but a flesh TTS machine. News story comes up on teleprompter, she reads it. She's not out hitting the streets doing deep dives (maybe hitting the dive bars still) - heck, that very rarely happens these days across media. Almost all news is trash. She maybe had a bit more "to do" when she was hosting a panel show on RT, so I'll give her that. But local news anchor? *eyeroll*
Jesse sucks too, but he's a performative entertainment show, and isn't trying to present facts, at least not without wrapping it in a heavy layer of "ironic" humor.
