Based on this criterion, are there any credible news organizations left?
- billysielu 8y agoThey can just put a quote in a headline and people will click on it. Whether the truth was spoken is irrelevant to their bottom line.
- ndnxhs 8y agoIts fairly easy to find 3 sources for any story because most articles are just reworded from other articles.
- cyphar 8y ago"unrelated" is the key word here (though I agree that copy-paste "journalism" is a fairly serious problem).
