Process and make more easily consumable? Sure, I don't have all day to catch up on happenings and events.
But to selectively edit videos, leave out details deliberately, loaded word choices ("blasts", "destroys", "slaps back"), deliberate misuse of words to instill a sense of credibility ("fact", "expert", "scientist"), and so much more?
That's more than just processing the data... that's deliberate manipulation.
In entertainment news media, Fact now means opinion, Expert now means political shill, and Scientist means random person with an opinion.
- wtvanhest 7y agoI often wonder how much entertainment news impacts politician’s decision making. I have to assume that they consider what the major news entertainment companies will say about bills they author and support or don’t. in some ways, they are not just reporting, but likely influencing.
