tv media seems to be useless as far as facts about what is actually going on now re Iran [View all]

checked 5 networks available to me only by internet and it is all bloviating talking heads with opinions on the this and that. hardly any facts about what has actually happened or is happening right now.
maybe nothing newsworthy is actually happening

I did learn at msnow that its audience must all be on death's door without meds lol
