Before Trump, I would tune into CNN or MSNBC for their shows. That was a time where it wasn't Obama talk all the time. Or George W talk all the time.

But now it's Trump 24/7.

They once covered other issues and stories that weren't related to the President. Now they don't. I guess it makes it easy for the hosts and their producers. Just get a panel and scream about Trump for the entire show.

But what are we missing? That's my question. For example, the Michigan State thing is a nothing for the cable news. They don't care. Where as the Penn State thing was HUGE for them pre Trump. And other things. Just using that example because they are similar stories.

It's all about ratings. I get that. But there is other shit going on in the world that the news network no longer covers.

There was a time where they would have to figure out content and important stories for these shows. Now it's just Trump every day.
