    9/11, WMD scandal

    So, Republicans use Intel services to facilitate a lie to start a war in Iraq, mainstream media is to blame for not questioning them.

    But you’re posting about how we can’t trust mainstream media when they call out the lies of a proven liar?

    You can’t just look at news, and conclude that it is all lies. You need to approach with some nuance and intelligence.

      can’t trust mainstream media

      I also mentioned that distrust in legacy media has only increased over the decades, looking at polling and data.

      I am for questioning and being highly criticial of the owner class and their ilk, this includes the duopoly.

      You can’t just look at news, and conclude that it is all lies.

      I did not try to make this point, if I did I am wrong. I am trying to say that we must be highly criticial of legacy media, which the owner class controls to a certain degree.

      Just look at the funding and the few corporations of media that control what the working class see in their TV or online.

      Feel free to watch and read legacy media, I do, but I implore to also check out independent journalists as well.
