The news media thread
The news media no longer simply report the news. Many times they are the news. This thread is the place where we -- not just me -- can post news about the news media. For starters, let's focus on Fox News political commentator and conspiracy theorist Sean Patrick Hannity:

Get ready for the backlash and criticism!
Colin Kaepernick lands the cover of GQ in magazine's first 'Citizens of the Year'
Mashable, Nov 13 2017 12:25 PM
When Colin Kaepernick took a knee in protest of police brutality, it sparked a national conversation, one that has blackballed him from the NFL but is still echoing strong, as evidenced by GQ magazine, which has named the former San Francisco 49ers quarterback sone of its first "Citizens of the Year." The magazine invited Kaepernick's friends, mentors and former teammates to shed light on why the purpose of his protest should not be diluted over time. Kaepernick is joined by Gal Gadot, Kevin Durant and Stephen Colbert as "Citizens of the Year."
