The Press Is NOT Our Enemy!!

anniepa @anniepa (27955) • United States 12 Mar 17

Colin Clyde I think Trump is correct to criticize the big media companies, which have become overly centralized and corrupt. Your claim that the media was biased against Hillary Clinton is largely contradicted by what we know from Wikileaks, such as the fact that the...

NO MONEY, NO LOVE.

Kandase @Kandae11 (55016) 21 Jun 17

Bubblews's former CEO is selling fidget spinners!

The Horse @TheHorse (218846) • Walnut Creek, California 21 May 17

Has the "fidget spinner" craze hit your area? Do they have them in Europe and India (and elsewhere)? All of the 8-12-year-old boys I work with have one. Some have several. At a graduation party I was at yesterday, I was...

Colin Clyde luckily my generation at least got to see a lot of those old films on television. Media is so different now, I don't think today's kids have any experience they can compare to sitting in a dark theater watching serials.

wildlittlefan @wildlittlefan (4680) • Hong Kong 27 Dec 16

AbbyGreenhill @AbbyGreenhill (45494) • United States 20 Apr 17
