A failure of the so called "free press" that does not delve into the root causes of issues. When the news talks about going to war to "protect our interests", it is not explained what this means.
When a brutal dictator must be removed, it is not explained how they consolidated power so profusely and with whose help.
When the horrors of the Mexican cartels are shown (quite rarely for British news considering the death rate) the logical conclusions are not drawn.
And the average person does not ask questions, just consume what they are told
