"The media" -- just because randos say that doesn't mean mainstream news is saying it's a fact.
- abracadaniel 3y agoIt does seem like there’s been a trend of claiming “things I read on Twitter and don’t believe” as being out of touch MSM, while “things I read on Twitter and agree with” are the new journalism disrupting the status quo.
- randomopining 3y agoYup. They loosely associate whatever poster with "being on the MSM's side" and basically attribute it to them. When in reality, an organization like NYTimes is on the leading forefront of fact collecting and verification -- even though it has a metropolitan liberal bend.
