Maybe the government needs to A. bring back the fairness doctrine. B. Update it for ads/propaganda/social media.
Say for instance they created an agency that basically monitors/fact checks news and advertisements.
Or it could just be political ads. I think the government should enforce honesty in political ads, I mean allowing lying in political ads seems to say corruption is allowed. As lying = corruption.
Or no agency and just severe consequences/litigation for publishing/republishing 'fake news' without some sort of byline saying 'this is fake news', and dishonest political ads could also be sued against.
I mean as litigious as we are there's a gold mine for the legal industry here.
