Run, the media thinks they are the end-all, be-all and entitled. My favorite story about them goes back to the early 70s with lawsuit over the TMPA. TMPA was the single most dangerous entity ever created with unbridled power to seize property.
TMPA's first power grab was in Grimes County, whose landowners sued. Grimes County in the legislature by The Bull of the Brazos, Senator Bill Moore of Bryan. Television station in Dallas sent a reporter down to Bryan to interview Senator Moore. His staff refused to let them in his office. He and his son left out the back door to get in his car and go home to dinner. The reporter caught them with the Senator inside and his son getting behind the wheel.
The great (but typical) question, "Can you tell us why the Senator refuses to answer the people's questions".
Son's reply, "People, what people? You look like just some other ******* sent down here to stir up trouble".
That went live over Dallas 6 o'clock news.
