If you're looking for the funniest stuff, I suggest starting with the Steve, Don't Eat It Homage and then the travel category. You're on your own with the older posts that have yet to be categorized.

Cover that asshole

I'm certainly no fan of our President. But what I really don't understand is the way the media covers him. Depending on the network, he's either the biggest asshole ever or the second coming.

I get why Fox covers him the way they do as they clearly care about nothing else except eyeballs/ads. Any AI trying to optimize either of those things would end up with something greatly resembling Fox News.

CNN (and to a lesser extent MSNBC) try harder to pass themselves off as "news". But they insist on covering every Trump tweet. Live coverage of almost anything he says (with the more recent exception of not covering his campaign rallies as much). Droning on and on about how this is not normal or that is not normal. If it's not normal, why do you insist on covering him as if he was normal?

If the President was a devout nudist (and, oh please do not take that as a suggestion) and the White House was a "no clothes" zone, would they cover anything live and in its full glory? Would they make their WH reporters go nude or would they hire nudists to be WH reporters? Would they pixelate and obfuscate? Covering Trump really isn't that different than covering a nudist. Figure out a way to get the news that fits with your channel's position on nudity (or outrageousness) and stop focusing on the nudity (or outrageousness) which stopped being news well over a year ago.

Yu v. Lee

I think the first priority of discussion of denuclearization of North Korea should be this pronouncement:
