There’s nothing really to defect from because the OP is based on an assumption that can’t be proven without seeing the lead in to the clip. The point of showing another example is that the OP is targeted at CNN, a typically left leaning cable news network and my examples show that Fox News, a right leaning cable news network does the same thing.
That’s certainly a large contributing factor to the division in our country. Unfortunately what’s happened is that there’s been such a large effort from right wing media to discredit mainstream media due to an imperfect track record and left leaning editorial staffs that many on the right have been convinced that anything the “left leaning” mainstream media puts out is a lie and therefore anything that runs counter to that , aka fake news, is the truth. Their ■■■■■■■■ detectors have been completely compromised.
The solution is not to blindly trust the mainstream media, but to become better read consumers of news and current events. Get your news from multiple sources. Look to see if a media source posts corrections when they get something wrong. And learn to tell the difference between straight news and editorial content.
Too much of “journalism” has become taking some popular meme and reinforcing it rather than accurately reporting. Both sides do it, but CNN has been the industry leader. That channel has found the most negative spin on everything right if center in this country since at least the Obama administration…
That outfit is horrible. It breaks my heart that people treat those frauds as credible.
If you disagree it’s a free country and we ll agree to disagree…we are done here.
