    For starters, the article was about California secessionists assuming the path to independence is easier than Catalonia’s. Additionally, because of the 10th Amendment to the U.S Constitution, they are convinced. I understand, it sounds easier than one would think. In reality, I suspect there would be multiple issues. If California secedes, would every Californian need new passports? For those not born in California, would they be considered American citizens, not Californians? I'm sure any issue would resolve if the time comes, but it is a thought. Overall, I understand California contributes a big role in the United States and its history. However, California is economically dependent enough to stand on its own and if the state concludes it…

    Instead of saying, “We have unconfirmed reports that—This just in! We now have confirmed reports that those unconfirmed reports have been denied. No, wait! There’s a new report denying the confirmation of the denial of the unconfirmed report.” and giving viewers whiplash, they suggest that the reporters simply wait until a story is confirmed before reporting it and do commentary in the meantime. The content of news has an advantage and disadvantage. The circumstances they portray tend to be one sided. Some people prefer reading a newspaper because there information can be more accurate. I don’t feel like the media is actually helping us. I think it scares us more than anything because all the bad that goes on. It helps them get an audience while we are being talked…
