Why does the liberal media.....

Continuously publish reports about violence against women in middle eastern countries? Why is this even relevant in the everyday life of the average American? Aside from the media being liberal, what other agenda is there to constantly reporting it? Frankly, I don't care about women's "rights" in general, and I certainly don't care about what happens in tribal countries like Pakistan.

    What "liberal media" are you viewing, the "liberal" media I have viewed seems to be absent on that matter, if they even mention anything related to Muslim countries at all, stuff like what you have said im more likely to see on more "conservative" sources like Fox News and Brietbart. Most of the liberal sources, like MSNBC and nytimes seem more interested in slamming Donald Trump and reporting on environmental news, and seem to hardly talk at all about the middle East at all, much less the human rights violations going on there.

    Remember Fox is "conservative", CNN is " liberal"

    The short answer is because those things make for interesting stories. The media doesn't like to report on "good" things or "okay" things because they're not "interesting" enough a lot of the time.

    But I'm surprised you decided to make this about the "liberal" media. I would think that the more conservative view is to recognize that there are a lot of problems with the way people are treated over in those countries and that's why they're an enemy right now and why we can't let them in, etc... While the "liberals" tend to say "don't paint them all with the same brush, they're not all that way" etc.

    I was watching Fox news, which I think we can agree is not liberal, last night and basically all they were talking about it how horribly women, gays, and lesbians are treated in those regions of the world. They did this to back up Donald Trump's point about why we shouldn't let those people from those parts of the world into the country right now.

    If it were a liberal agenda, they would more likely be reporting on women being mistreated in this country (America) rather than overseas. But if they are smart, liberal media will keep its mouth shut, especially right now, about any issues with people in that part of the world.

    What relavance does reporting on sports have?
    Your local team in the local eve news, sure.
    But major sports.
    What effect or relavance is that to your daily life?
    More to the point, how is it even news?
    Don't see you bitching about that.
    As for the mid east.
    I don't give a rip either.
    Just leave them alone.
    We waist far to much $$$ and lives trying to bring them something they never asked for.

    If they don't care about woman's rights, they would not care about anybody else either.

  • Because people like to convince themselves they care and media knows this. They'll let you go "aww, poor them" and feel like you're a good person for it and go about your day.

    Why help when you can watch or read something for five minutes and have the sense of good morality.

    • Your intelligence separates you from the herd. Don't concern yourself with "fitting in". People either have good morals or they don't.

      I like that.
