The press in Florida is like any other media in this Country anywhere. Useless.The MSM in general yes is hostile to ANY Republican that is doing anything good at all. But the local press in Florida seems to be pretty neutral in printing/broadcasting the good and the bad and the ugly in a more objective way. At least the Miami Herald, Tampa Bay Times and a few others. But I don't live there and I don't see as much Florida local news as you do.
I know this to be true. The average age of 'journalists' is 27. I've known a bunch of them. They used to gravitate to my business because it was advantageous to them to do so. I'd talk to them. More than you might think.
I also know that, as they got older and wanted a stable relationship, a spouse, children, a home, etc, they couldn't do it. They often are only in a job for a very short period of time. The vast majority of them are on 90 Day Contracts. Just the way it is.
They start out in a small market like.... I dunno, The Bismarck Tribune, then, if they're lucky they can get on in a bigger market like say, The Duquesne register. Then, if they're real lucky maybe in Grand Rapids, then maybe, MAYBE in Dee-Troit, then maybe, SOOPER MAYBE, Chicago, then -- It's a stupid job for stupid people.
That is the biggest reason the average age is so low.
The media is a shit job. And most of the people in it are shit people.
