Went to my local farmers market last week. I only thought organic food was expensive until i purchased some of the items on display, Plus, don't really enjoy the dog park that goes with shopping there.

We have Bend Broad Band. Poor WiFi reception and system. Had them out several times and even bought a new TV. Wasn’t the TV at all. It was their box that broke down. So frustrated!

When they gated the parking garage, I swore off downtown. I still shop "locally", but most of the mall stores are national chains.

Too expensive for me to buy from small specialty local shops.

The real story typically comes from the real people involved. If they express their opinions and tell their story on social media, it's unfiltered.

Social media's a hotbed of misinformation! I'd never believe a post until I saw it confirmed on a news outlet.

People like to share things that are "shocking" and feed into their fear and filter bias. I always fact check or see if I can at least find the story on other sources.

First off a "opinion" is just that. It's not fact, it's not news, it's just what some one thinks or feels. The same goes for "media outlets" No one gives a damm about your "opinions"
