Proper Speech
#4
The practical answer is that if the information is being put out into the public domain, to a very wide audience, and it is about people who have set themselves up as public political figures for public examination and critique, then it is not forbidden to read or listen to the political commentary. Unless the source is spreading outright lies about a person.

To be sure, I sent this answer to Rabbi Moshe Weiner in Jerusalem, and he agrees.
