Recently the biggest news on television media has been all about the Government Shutdown that occurred recently on Tuesday, October 1, 2013. What basically happened was that the House and Senate couldn't agree on a bill to fund the government, So because of this disagreement, The government has now shutdown; And who knows how long this will last. The last time the federal government shutdown was on December 15, 1995 and it lasted 21 days. Let's just hope this one will not last very long so everything could go back on track. Television media has been keeping us posted on everything that is going on so far since the shutdown. Like "The Senate will reconvene and will likely make a decision on the House's offer to talk. But Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid said late Monday night that he wouldn't agree to such a meeting until the House presents a clean spending bill stripped of the amendments." We will soon find out what will happen next with the shutdown since this topic has become very popular and has also affected the people of the United States of America, who are eager for everything to just go back to normal and make everything right.
So, why is it significant that this is all the TV is covering? Are they doing a good job? Is there nonbiased representation? What aren't they talking about?
