Speaking as a publisher's kid, I think it's important to look at your news source and say, "How many sources do they have? Are they verifying their work? Do they run retractions?"

So I don't touch TV media; it's too visual and visceral. I prefer the written word. Blocking and tackling journalism is all about verifying sources with a healthy respect for wanting to get the story right, not satisfy a consumer demographic. We're also in an era where you can be varied in your media intake, but need to be wary of outlets that pose as real journalism, but have an unvarnished political agenda.

If you want to see why TV can't hang, just watch Megyn Kelly softball Vladimir Putin. They're too scared to ask questions because they're wedded to access journalism. Circling back around to CNN, it's mostly dumb talking heads, and now they're adding dumb talking heads to talk against the original crop of dumb talking heads because they think dumb talking heads in conflict will add to ratings. Maybe they're right, but it goes way away from what made CNN famous and dominant in its heyday, which was camera footage on the scene.

It's gotten to the point where they run "THE BIG GRAPHIC" and "THE DRAMATIC MUSIC." I roll my eyes and start thinking of Ralph Steadman's artwork.

@Vilageidiotx
didn't they get elected

They won a lot of seats, but Hitler wasn't elected into power, he was appointed. Hitler was a very skillful politician and rapidly outpoliticked the rest of the German government, so it wasn't majority support that got him in power.

@Dynamo Frokane@Vilageidiotx
But Trump's in power

@Dynamo Frokane@Vilageidiotx
