We do have that but there is strong bias towards not trusting journalism. Everything in the US is capital based and no one wants to pay for journalism. So journalism relies on ad-tactics to get eyeballs looking at their stuff.

This in turn causes low trust because if one type of article is manipulative then the other types must be right?

If people weren’t so anti-capitalism then the journalism would have incentive to be less manipulative across the board.

Furthermore the politicians want manipulative journalism, there is no incentive on either side to do the right thing. If there was we wouldn’t have the political candidates we do today.

Instead we invest in the weakness because be uneducated means you don’t actually have to understand just vote emotionally.
