That's the problem when you have people responsible for news having the business model of ad-sposored entertainment and not fact reporting.

- pacman001 2y agoThe conclusion I’m coming to is that this, too, is an exponent of an inherent weakness: we like to be told stories. As children we like to be told stories and this remains. We now have a complete spectrum of story-telling: science fiction, fiction, non-fiction, …, and news. News reporting itself is a continuum, with tabloid gossip on one side and political coverage on the other. We have so much stories to choose from.

- littlestymaar 2y agoI live in France, and saying that 90% of the media are ad-sponsored is a conservative estimate. So I don't know which part of western Europe you're talking about, but it clearly doesn't apply to all of it.
