Corporate media was pushing one candidate heavily, it didn't get elected, now they are pushing story that people somehow read fake news, on Facebook! :), implying that people are not good or smart enough (unlike them). That condescending attitude got us where we are.
Problems are not as simple. There is not nearly enough good reporting, analysis. War is promoted heavily. TechNews are last few years plagued by what I call 'sponsorship reporting'. Apple always get glowing reviews no matter what. What I believe is most troubling, is that even people who participate in this started to believe in this news.
Anyhow, good news is that we are talking about it and push for change is present. We need a lot more respect for other people views before anything can happen. This is most lacking now.
