I feel that with the advent of social media and the freedom to read same news incident from multiple sources in a matter of minutes, the news sources are forced to pick a side. There’s more activism and less journalism.
There used to be 1-2 activist newspapers, but now even the big ones have to choose sides
No they didn’t. There’s a famous quote that in the early 20th century newspapers didn’t just report the news they made the news. Newspapers have always had “fake news” and they’ve always taken sides and had agendas
It got so bad we had a war because of fake news, so we passed some laws to not let it happen again, then Ronald Reagan got those laws removed, and we are back after it.
