Return to sanity by turning off cable news

With two weeks to go until the election, most people are in a state of high anxiety. I have a suggestion — for Democrats, Republicans, and Independents: turn off your television. The harsh truth is that MSNBC and Fox News are two sides of the same coin. Their goal is make money. Their commentators knowingly add to the nation's anxiety in order to boost the network's viewer numbers and maintain their high salaries. Pull the plug on all of them — and return to sanity!
