Litigation is imperative to end this maudlin folly.
We must petition powers that be to make the news more jolly.
Fill it up with cheerful stuff and cover up the crime.
Scrub the whole environment to cover up the grime.
There isn’t any heartache and prejudice is over.
Cover up the poison ivy. Embellish the clover.
Dealing with reality simply isn’t fun,
so let’s whitewash reality until the the world is done.
Reality shows are way more fun than boring old reality.
So let’s cheer up the news again with fictional banality!
Prompt words today are folly, maudlin, petition, imperative and litigation. Image by Markus Spiske on Unsplash

It is of course a protest against making news more entertainment venue than factual.

I had to listen to faux news today at the doctor. It’s not news at all. It’s just dem bashing.

Can’t hit “like” on that one. Seems as though a doctor’s office is somewhere you should be able to go to get away from all that, doesn’t it?

There were a couple of remotes there, but I didn’t mess with them. Fox isn’t the problem. It’s people who watch it. š¦
