Immigration, the full scope, not just the Trump wall. Discuss his phony national emergency in relation to the Constitution. Show how the states of California, Florida, Colorado, and others are so very dependent on these immigrants in their agricultural industries; how all this illegal influx was initiated by companies across America to reduce labor costs. And how the government let them get away with it. Talk about a complete overhaul of the entire immigration system.
Domestic terrorism, i.e., out of control mass shootings, the murders of our children, the complete refusal of this Congress, because of Republican continued opposition, to take steps to solve the problem and end this madness.
I'm won't go into such detail on all the remaining issues but I will identify more of them that need the same kind of in depth reporting.
The Iranian Nuclear Treaty, the Paris Climate Accord, and the IMF treaty, Why Trump made a massive blunder in canceling those treaties, why they must be restored.
Climate change is a subject that is largely being ignored, whether by the Congress, the press, or TV. The media is doing a lousy job with this critically important issue that involves a distinct threat to this planet and our civilization.
Not perfect by any means, but major newspapers such as the New Yo r k Times, the Washington Post, and a few others, do a far better job of reporting the news by carrying out thorough investigations of important matters.
TV news channels don't need to do such in depth investigations because that's not what they are designed to do. They do more basic news reporting and they regularly report on what these newspaper investigations discover. News reporting is, without a doubt, extremely important. But that is just not enough, we also need these TV channels do go a step further and expand their horizons.
Nothing is more important than this need to inform and educate the American people. That's how important changes in government come about, when people better understand what is really going on, get far more involved, and demand change.
