Roving Camera


Do you believe the mainstream media is objective and fair?

I always believed that newspapers and TV media operate from a construct to prove their point and then they look for people to support what they already believe instead of maintaining objectivity.

No. they only tell us what they want us to know. They’re very opinionated. The way they speak, they don’t say it but you know how they feel toward it.

No. I think that there are standards set by the media designed to be, sorted, warped and unfair to the average lower income or urban person.

I would love to say yes, but I have to say no. The media is two-fold: Democratic or Republican, in other words: bureaucratic.

I believe the Final Call (newspaper) is more apt to give you the truth than any of the mainstream newspapers.

No. I believe that they’re really opinionated. They try more to persuade than to inform.
