One of the most effective forms of misleading reporting involves cherry-picking facts that support your narrative.
You can also conveniently ignore stories where it is obvious that facts may disrupt your desired meta-narrative.
Some organizations have even found ways of doing this whilst being revered for taking a balanced stance and presenting the full picture.
- smsm42 8y ago> One of the most effective forms of misleading reporting involves cherry-picking facts that support your narrative and not exploring stories where it is obvious that facts may disrupt your desired narrative. Isn't that what about 100% of existing news media is doing? They key here is to read more than one source, but having a source that would alone represent more than one narrative by now is pretty close to hopeless.
