I see what you're saying - when mainstream outlets consistently hide swaths of current events, statistics, and long-form analysis from their front pages or even the back pages out of fear of giving airtime to "Republican talking points" the result is that independents and liberals who ignorant of that information are susceptible to the spin of the first person who presents it - whether that person is a moderate or an extremist.
- TheOperator 7y agoI quite like the modern trend of "fact check" articles. Which is to say editorials with references that give lip service to non-partisanship. It's incredible really journalisms continued reliance on reputation and disdain for references. I think if this trend continued it would be effective against the weak arguments pushed by far-right boosters.
