I wouldn't say that I'm outraged, but I get what you're saying. It's just garbage for clicks.

I was just trying to turn a phrase off what you said, probably could've phrased it better. But I'm glad we are on the same page Captain.

No worries, and yeah we are. These news sites live for generating outrage, outrage about what others are outraged about, or occasionally both at the same time.

It's so frustrating to try to stay informed without feeling like a news source is trying to manipulate my emotions or spin stories for whichever side of the political spectrum they lean toward.
