i dont mind the summary from the AP. They are legit. Then a reader can follow up on what interests them. I think Oaks is pointing out how shitty Dump is and I have no prob with that either!
Many of todays news seekers cant or dont want to read too much. 140 characters or less. Facebook.Twitter etc. Any more, and they aint reading it. Even our sorry excuse for a president communicates primarily via twitter. SAD. SHAME.
