I'm not sure, but I'm not liking the media present we have.

  Need to reinforce your bubble.

  I think it's not possible to have an opinion on "the media". It's an industry not an entity. The MSM has mostly done an outstanding job, newspapers in particular. There's a lot of terrible media too.

    > The MSM has mostly done an outstanding job, newspapers in particular. I really genuinely cannot tell whether you are being sarcastic.

      Sincere. The NY Times, WaPo, NPR and even CNN have not let much get past them. It's a meme that they're terrible because they made a few mistakes in thousands of pages of reporting. For the most part, they have dug deep and gotten tons of information to light. Information that amateur opinion writers on platforms like Substack can't match. Even the slightly outsider orgs like ProPublica or The Intercept are doing their work via professional newsrooms with editors. I don't recall ever seeing a major story be broken by a blogger or newsletter writer.
