I told my daughters this when they were growing up: Never forget that the purpose of news media is NOT to inform. The purpose of news media is to sell advertising. Once you keep that in mind, you should become a lot less gullible about accepting what you see in the media.
- slig 2y agoI'm going to tell mine: their objective is to sell propaganda, both in a literal and a figurative way.
- tensor 2y agoI’m going to tell mine: the only thing worse than news media is random internet comments. They’re either propaganda, lies, or snake oil.
- synecdoche 2y agoInternet comments are generally not masquerading as news.
