The media is called the fourth estate (not 5th). A 5th column would be more like sleeper cells.
And the media lies at least as much as our government. That's why ratings are so far down. They have burned their credibility that previous generations of journalists spent decades building up.
- kennywinker 1y agoAh, you’re half right. The fourth estate is what I meant to refer to. The fifth estate means outsider media, not sleeper cells - idk where you’re getting that. As for “the media lies”, sure, and if a person is speaking lies will be said - but that is hardly a fact that can be used to dismiss all journalism.
