Journalists have evolved into an enemy of the people as they promote their personal, and corporate political beliefs on the rest of us, while passing it off as “just the facts.” I think journalism lost its “inform the public” mantle many years ago as journalists saw the power they had. As another commentor said, burn it to the ground, the media and journalism in general is forever poisoned against the people.

Journalists are a very diverse group of people, some of whom care more about unbiased reporting, some less. However, aggression against journalism is the primary reason we are were we are right now. A very dangerous place.
