Letters: Media should keep opinions to selves

Americans are tired of the TV and newspaper pundits and journalists interpreting current events. This is part of the reason people don’t subscribe or tune in as much. How about reporting just the facts, no slant or spin?

I recall when the nightly news was 15 minutes. Now it is 30 minutes, and most of it consists of pharmaceutical commercials and irrelevant feel-good stories.

I don’t care who the media think won the debate, and I don’t care who newspapers endorse. This is very patronizing; I am perfectly capable of forming my own opinion if presented with the facts.

The only thing more annoying than the media pundits are the celebrities who feel compelled to inflict their opinions on us; I really don’t have any interest in their opinions.
