**Angie's Prompt: 

Bard, in yesterday's news, was there anything the national media failed to highlight that was incredibly significant, which caught your attention?

**Bard's Response:

Sure, here are a few things that the national media failed to highlight that were incredibly significant:

* **The ongoing war in Ukraine.** The war in Ukraine is a major humanitarian crisis, and it is having a significant impact on the global economy. However, it has received relatively little coverage in the national media.

* **The rise of inflation.** Inflation is at a 40-year high in the United States, and it is causing prices for goods and services to rise. This is putting a strain on household budgets and businesses.

* **The climate crisis.** The climate crisis is a major threat to the planet, and it is causing more extreme weather events, such as floods, droughts, and wildfires. However, the national media has not given the climate crisis the attention it deserves.

* **The political polarization in the United States.** The United States is more politically polarized than ever before, and this is making it difficult to address important issues. The national media has not done enough to bridge the divide between the two political parties.

These are just a few examples of things that the national media failed to highlight that were incredibly significant. It is important to stay informed about these issues, even if they are not getting the attention they deserve.
