When someone tells you and shows you who they are, believe them.

Like what timeline are we talking about here, when is the golden age of media not lying, it’s certainly not the 60’s and the Vietnam war.(hahaha ironically this is exactly when trust in the media and institutions was the highest, early 70’s)

Is there a series of things that they’ve lied about that you can point to that doesn’t have a partisan skew?
The only thing top of mind is maybe not going deep enough on the reasons for entering the Iraq war.
Face it, journalism is finished, it's extinct.
No one trusts narratives in general now. They're illusions entirely. Retire them as communication.
