Good News or Fake News: Hope — Waiting for the Real News

By Drake Hunter | Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice When you look for hope, peace, joy, and love in your relationships and reality during this Advent Season, what source is shaping who you are—the Good News or the fake news? Across Colorado, the nation, and around the world, people start their day scrolling through headlines, alerts, predictions, and debates. The news cycle never stops. It rarely offers hope.

There has been a shortage of eggs in some stores across the nation, CBS News reported on Friday, noting the businesses in states that require eggs from cage-free hens have been affected by Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI). “More than 40% of the nation’s roughly 300 million egg-laying hens are raised in cage-free facilities, but roughly 60% of ‘bird flu’ cases recently detected involved cage-free farms,” the report continued. There have been outbreaks recently in Utah, Oregon, California, and Washington, per Emily Metz, who is the chief executive and president of the American Egg Board. READ THE FULL STORY AT BREITBART
