Nobody likes to admit they watch television, particularly leftist

I thought I responded...maybe not. I watch some television, mostly
science, animal, nature, history programs, news on public television
stations, and once in a while, cable news shows.

My problem with that is there is not that much history and animal
shows to watch. When the history channel decided there was more money
in reality shows about crab fishermen and junk dealers, they became
unwatchable. Occasional Nat Geo has something decent but not that
often and cable news is simply ridiculous. MSNBC and CNN are russia
all the time and Fox is mostly based on personality shows with people
who have no personality. These days their actual news broadcasts may
actually be more unbiased than their competitors tho. I know you
disagree because anything that is not calling Trump a traitor a liar
and a moron is fake news to you, even when it has nothing to do with
Trump.

BTW I really think the left missed an opportunity. Knowing how
malleable Trump's convictions are, if they had acted like they were
supporting him, they might have had him turning on the far right of
the GOP who don't like him anyway. At that point he may have actually
helped gays, abortion people, health care advocates and might even
push back a little against the NRA. He has a pretty good history of
supporting liberal causes but you folks just pushed him deeper into
the trenches with the hard right.

The real issue now is to be sure we pay better attention to what
Congress is doing while we are distracted with this bull****.

I am enjoying watching the Trumps and their apologists digging
themselves deeper. Best drama on TV.

Getting back to take along movies,the ones I like the best are from the
30's, 40's, and 50's, some of it avant garde stuff. Mostly black and
white. In terms of digital space, they're fairly small...not like the
technicolor, surround sound products.
