The American Press Is Destroying Itself
- pgnas 6y agoInteresting article, there are some genuine issues pointed out. While I am certain that there are some good people in there somewhere, the press has done an excellent job commiting seppuku. The American press turned on the American people, plain and simple. In so far as a future? I don't know how you can go about getting honesty from your staff in the cancel culture, I don't think anyone understands the old adage; "you can please some of the people half of the time, but you cannot please all of the people, all of the time" ' “Anyone who sees any piece of Opinion journalism, headlines, social posts, photos—you name it—that gives you the slightest pause, please call or text me immediately.”' When you are ready to respond to FEELINGS in this manner, you cannot possibly be effective, especially in the field of journalism and God help anyone who has an opinion that these people don't agree with .. I shake my head in disbelief, literally, I cannot understand how this is not completely obvious to everyone...
