I'm a Canuck, but it is no secret how close our two countries, our peoples are. Some of us point and scoff, but these are the same sort which laugh when someone stubs their toe. Buffoons, they are. The lion's share of us watch, concerned. Not just for ourselves, and of what might come from utter chaos to the south. We are legitimatley concerned for what we view as family. I personally feel as if I am watching a beloved sibling, mess up their life for incomprehensible reasons. You want to help, you want to intervene, stop the pain.. but you feel that it may only make things worse. After all, how can you help, when you can't even understand? I agree with what you said, the media is broken. I can think of some fixes, like a constant "this is not news, but an opinion piece" banner or some such, but I doubt that will really help. It does seem to me, that a tiny, tiny percentage of the population is causing a HUGE disruption for almost everyone else. I mean tiny, a core of 0.001%, with all sorts of others "hanging on". While the issues raised have some legitimacy, the media has thrown gas on the fire, and in a way which reduces chances for either side to resolve things. Instead, we get, as you elude to, absurd, useless theatre.
