There is so much "media" available today. Of course one should question the media and what they make available to the public.
Some believe it is just the msm media that is spreading the propaganda. They turn a blinds eye to all of the alternative sources they read, listen or watch every day. As long as the source presents a view they hold then facts can be ignored. :mrgreen:
That's true in many cases. That's why people who are wise ask that very vital question: "If this is true, what else must be true?"
Here in Indianapolis, we are told by our homer sports shows every Fall that this year we really have a chance to win the Super Bowl. They are right about 5% of the inmate in this century.
What does this tell us? Probably a couple things. However, it does not tell us that they are impartial arbiters of truth. We really don't want that, anyway.
When we have a president presiding over a pretty great time in our lives and who is doing things, like the China Deal, that other presidents just ran away from, that pretty good.
Despite everything that tells us that he is doing about as good a job as anyone could do in this situation, we are told in 93% of the stories about him that he's doing a bad job.
He ordered a successful kill on a guy who was a child rapist, murderous terrorist and abuser of women. Only about 30% of the courage was positive. Wait! Wut?
There are few if any outlets of published/broadcast/posted information that are honest arbiters of the Truth with a capital T.
Once you know with certainty that an outlet, like CNN, will ALWAYS attack Trump regardless of the story, the facts or the reality, listening to what they say should be done with that in mind.
In the case of CNN, this represents an organizational abandonment of any editorial ethics, any ethics of their profession, any quest for honesty and any respect for their viewers. Disgusting!
As Reagan said, "Trust, but verify".
CNN had Avanotti (sp?) on so often that he seemed to have his own show. There was unapologetic talk about him being President. Now he's in jail. What does this tell us about CNN, CNN's ethics and CCN's reporting in general?
