To reverse this, the media would have to try to be trustworthy rather than reinforcing The Message. That's against everything they believe in.

What is "The Message"?

  I suppose any agenda that they have vested interest in spreading from how I interpret the parent's comment. Though I am not really sure For what its worth, I have found that traditional media does a really bad job of being trustworthy and I sometimes watch for journalism things like tldr news global from youtube and atleast the one thing that I like about them is how they really went far and beyond and are public with their financials so that I know that their message can be trusted with and there is no financial ulterior motives of sorts for the most part. I just wanted to share them really as I think that I respect their transparency to be really honest because in my honest opinion transparency generally speaking brings trustworthiness.

  In olden times, the journalistic ideal was to report what happened as objectively as possible. Now that isn't seen as good at all. Stories should be reported through the lens of The Message. Most reporters are young progressive Democrats, and this is whatever helps promote their agenda at the time. I mean, not so long ago the newsroom editor of the San Francisco Chronicle explicitly came out against objectivity...

    > "The consensus among younger journalists is that we got it all wrong… We are the problem. Objectivity has got to go," The San Francisco Chronicle editor-in-chief Emilio Garcia-Ruiz similarly expressed. "They are willing to share their lived experiences to call out bulls---, despite their status in the newsroom. There can sometimes be a chasm between them and the older veteran reporters." Also you might need to time box "olden times" considering what newspapers looked like before the 60s.
