When I first visited the US, I was in a hotel room at the end of a long day and figured I'd turn on the news. Regular-ass news, I just wanted to know what had happened since my flight landed. FOX was on. MSNBC was on - election. https://twitter.com/Lesdoggg/status/1350671786287927296

The first thing that struck me was how neither reported much on news. More-so, anchors were trying to throw shit at politicians and other news sites, marking them as extremist shit-for-brains corporation sheep.
I'm Swedish and while some will say our media is x-leaning, it's nowhere near as subjective and it's most certainly not a shit-talk private talkshow. Major American news channels feed beliefs to their viewers and that is dangerous. If you see only one side, it's detrimental -
To your own forming of opinions on important subjects. Also - my one gripe with this clip, and truly the only one - when was American democracy a beacon of hope for the world? I certainly have never seen the US as some fantastical democracy beacon. Watch this video though, A+.
