And I mean "follow" as in where you get your news and information from, including independent journalists.

Don't get me wrong. I like John Stossel, but he's not perfect. I'm sure that he has been promoting election betting odds because of the potential to make money. Are they better predictors of an election outcome? Not necessarily.

My biggest beef with Stossel is that he called people selfish for refusing to take the COVID vaccine, even when people have died from taking the vaccine already. He doesn't report that. His biased reporting of the vaccine spoiled his reputation as a better journalist with fair and balanced coverage. I don't think he was lied to about the vaccine. I think he knew what he was doing.

Anyways, Stossel is still one of the better journalists we have now. At least, he stands for freedom and called out liberal hypocrisy.

But after hearing things I don't like, I've learned to not always spontaneously agree with him. I think people should have their own opinions and judge for themselves. I found myself agreeing too much with Stossel and not thinking about what others might say.
