The media, the press in particular, used to be called the fourth estate or the 4th branch of government, because they fact checked and kept the other three honest.
Now the media is a propaganda arm for one side or the other. And people swallow it hook, line, and sinker, without reading on their own. As long as it lines up with your bias, it must be true. Easy manipulation.

There is no truth anymore. Only assertions. The internet world has no interest in truth, only vindication for preconceived assumptions. |
