The media (assuming were talking news media) needs to be held to a higher standard imo. The search for truth is a difficult, nuanced, and incredibly important to our society. Using it as a tool to push any narrative erodes trust in it and leads to more relativist crap.
- ethbr0 4y agoI opined on this is another thread and essentially despaired of ever being able to hold the media to a higher standard, because of the regulating-the-experts problem. In my thinking, we'll cause more harm than good by trying to adjust the output, so why try? Instead, we should focus on the economic input and make it more profitable to produce quality news. And notably, that is very much not the economic incentives in place for news now.
