perhaps i am the only one …

who thinks that this war on Fox “News” is treading on dangerous ground?

on unfollowing

i do not unfollow and/or unsubscribe lightly. i appreciate and enjoy having many sources of information and entertainment, and i certainly do not decide to unfollow based on a difference of opinion – i appreciate different perspectives, as long as they are logical, well-thought out, and expressed with some grace and dignity.

note: you will either want to turn yoru speakers up, or down. me? i turn them up.
