>>traditional media just deals in half truths and artificially modifying information
You know, this also could be a definition for Gonzo journalism which by its nature is 'truth inspired'.

- henvic 5y agoUnfortunately, most of traditional media is both really intertwined with government actors, and mostly interested in matters of politics, instead of sciences, technology, and more meaningful and informative things. News is, unfortunately, mostly propaganda and de facto marketing & public relations of government officials instead of about interesting topics you can learn from.
