My trust in the media has diminished. I remember the original "network" news, short and to the point and no commercials. When they started commercials I remember my dad saying, "well that's end of that, they're now bought and paid for."
Is this blame game leading to more than just a war of words? It makes me wonder.
It is becoming more and more difficult to evaluate and use validated sources for news and information in a world full of purposeful disinformation and uncorroborated information driven by the speed of news cycles. I have long thought that news should not be driven by advertising revenue as a way to upgrade ethics and fact checking prior to publication or broadcast.
Agreed on the “Buzz feed” link but then we must ask ourself, “where do the majority of Americans get their click bait news”… sometimes the answer is too obvious. 🤷♀️
As a Jew, I am particularly sensitive about conspiracy theories, since so many of them target my co-religionists. They infuriate me beyond belief.
