They have to defend their alternative truth by demonizing MSM, MSNBC, CNN, or some other cable TV channel, which I don&#8217;t have.  No, they make derogatory remarks about the pedigree of the news sources, but they have *never* told me what I *should* be watching.  It&#8217;s a shallow defense against being well-informed.
