Your usually unbiased reporting is much appreciated, but this one was very biased. it makes me question if I should continue listening. Can anyone recommend a truly unbiased news source?

I am wondering why you talk about the high temperatures in part of the country but don't even mention the low temperature in other parts. Chadron, NE had a low temperature of 34* yesterday, and other areas are experiencing abnormally low high temperatures.

There are now many platforms where you can bet on sports. I love football. That's why I came here http://breakingthelines.com/opinion/harry-kane-transfer-news-man-utds-unexpected-tottenham-request-before-bayern-munich-disaster/ to find out about a possible Harry Kane transfer. He has good prospects. Thanks to such useful information, I understand what bets to place in football.

I feel they should have tried a joint 3rd account because she knows how much their monthly budget is, and they both equally put in their far share. This will help her see how much she really is over spending but not have her husband know. This might inspire her to start saving.
