The traditional media also pumps out loads of fake news, FUDs, and Ads by super-pacs. The only thing the traditional media isn't doing is selling enough ads to have a world scale impact, because they're a dying form of media compared to social networking and the search.

When I'm on twitter I see a nice mix of utter crap and useful information. When I read the NYT it's just a carefully curated selection of total crap.

What? You mean it's more fake than the well researched reputable journalistic services provided by FreedomEagle2AdForever on social networks?

When I read the NYT it's just a carefully curated selection of total crap.

Based on that statement, I have to believe that you don't actually read the New York Times. You read a very small subset of NYT articles, probably online, that appeal to your anger response.

If you actually read the entirety of the New York Times, you'd feel differently. Or at least foolish for making such a sweeping statement.

I have a weekday subscription, so I do read it regularly.

I think it's equally problematic if you simply trust everything you read on New York Times (or any other media)
