It has been a particularly embarrassing week for the press, and it's only Saturday.
For an industry that's as disliked and distrusted as Congress, there's a lot of work that media need to do to win back viewers' trust. There's no room for error, especially now that there's a subgenre of "news" that has zero basis in fact, and is created from thin air for the sole purpose of generating cash.
But learning to be more careful and even-handed is apparently difficult for some in media, and this week was especially rough for newsrooms that are already struggling to regain credibility.
In no particular order, here are some of the most embarrassing media moments from this week:

The MSM lies SO much! I know there is a lot of controversy regarding the picture of Trump's crowd vs. Obama. I personally know 3 different families that attended that stood at different sections and they ALL said the entire mall was just packed full.

There is no journalism and this has been going on since the 60's.
ReplyDeleteAs it should be. You act with no honor, you deserve no honor or loyalty. The Moscow news is more honest than our MSM!
