This article in the Sun points out how political strategists "have used the sensational to misdirect voters from real issues as a way to get their candidates elected."
My brother's post today is of a similar vein - but funny. I googled the psychologist mentioned in the Sun article and found this
Washington Post article from last week.
"We are continuing to navigate through the modern world with a Stone Age mind," Davis said"
And so, it seems, I might as well stop hoping for the media to focus on the issues. I'll just start marking the days to the election.
* Edited from 63 to 64 because, as Brian pointed out, I'm really waiting for Nov 5.
