So I take it you're *unwilling* to answer the question because you are
*asking* questions, that's okay I understand.

I mean really, what is a *news* source anyway Joe. I will not argue the
semantics because it's a moot point and I can't compete with your
obsession over it. Damn near every outlet of so called *news* is slanted
one way or the other so the actual *trust* levels are not there, at
least in my eyes. So saying what's real news & what's not is a moot
point as well. When an administration, yes the government, comes out &
starts defining what's *real* news as opposed to fake news I become VERY
concerned, it's not their place to define that. Cable shows are a whole
NEW slant on covering the news, I'd just as soon say that the big names
on MSNBC & some on CNN fit the category of *entertainers* as well but
you know what, I still sit & listen to them & *never* dismiss
*EVERYTHING* they say, that's just stupid & immature. But, to each his
own I suppose.

yadda yadda yadda.

Beck is not a news source. He's an entertainer. But even if he was a news
source, he'd still be the Hack's ONLY source, and that's very unhealthy.

What is this? Are you *dismissing* me?

I seriously doubt you are concerned with a persons *unhealthy* ways,
it's a *game* to you playing with people. If one had to say something is
unhealthy I suggest you look in the mirror.

You're kidding, right?

My estimate...Zero. He says whatever the NYT tells him to.
