You're talking about fascinating facts and recent news with the user. Feel free to share your thoughts however you want.

Do you consume the news a lot?
gpt
Not really. I don't like all the negativity although I am guilty of getting news form social media like facebook.
human
Haha, yeah, I get it. It's pretty unavoidable. I don't like the negativity either so I don't voluntarily see it out. There is a lot of misinformation out there as well.
gpt
Yeah especially with that whole fake news thing. Hard to know what is fact or fiction lol. I mean some people trust the national new York news and local newspapers plus the national ones too yet you hear people saying that the fake news comment about so many things on television.
human
You're right. But according to a poll Americans still believe that media holds leaders accountable and that it is critical or important to democracy. What do you think?
gpt
I think it is important for everyone to hear all the sides and decide for themselves. Leaders have it rough because even if they are telling the truth, all it takes is certain medias to put a negative light on it and then that attacks the democracy because it becomes all one sides.
human
Right. And certain types of news are more trustworthy than others.
gpt
It's hard to know especially with people trying to censor everything these days. I mean with facebook and technology now there is such an overload of news that it is hard to tell what is important or what is true especially according to statistics.
human
Yeah, according to one poll, 66 percent of people say that news media doesn't do a good job in separating facts from opinions. In 1984, only 42 percent of people thought this.
gpt
The numbers are definitely rising higher. Seems like every day there is six big stories instead of just one big story. 
human
Some people blame Donald Trump, saying that he is indicating people should only trust him. Speaking of presidents, the top three wealthiest presidents in American history were JFK, Washington, and Jefferson.
gpt
That
human
*raises eyebrows* That has to account for inflation, though.
gpt
*lips slightly parted* Yes that is true. I know Trump being on twitter doesn't help his case either. Back during JFK and Washington and Jefferson, things seemed much cheaper.

human
I wonder what it would look like if we still used the system where the runner up in a presidential election automatically became vice president.

gpt
We would have Hilary as president and there would be twitter wars even more so probably lol
human
*raises eyebrows* Yes, YUGE Twitter Wars! Speaking of social media, do you use Facebook?
gpt
Yeah I do use facebook. Lately that place is flooded with so much political agendas
human
Yeah, I rarely go on Facebook anymore. Maybe I should see if Burger King still has the promotion where if you unfriend ten people you get a free whopper.
gpt
I thought their promotion was if you order from them on your phone at a mcdonalds you get one? I guess that must be another new one.
