How old were you when you stopped trusting American news outlets? It seems that most of the country developed most of their mistrust after 2016. There were certainly some who were ahead of that curve. You saw how the media stumped for Obama and Hillary, and you realized that the concept of objective journalism was dead and buried, but most people took longer to catch on.
Regardless of when you awoke to the problem, we’re now at a place where the vast majority of Americans don’t trust the news. So, we should ask the next question. Why don’t you trust the news? Rather, why do you think they stick to their bias even though it’s tanking their ratings and killing their revenue?
You might think that it’s pure political activism on their part, and in some cases, that’s probably true. You might assume that they’re just oblivious. That’s definitely true for people like Joy Behar, and Don Lemon. Still, somewhere in that mix are producers who care more about money than personal politics. Why are they still so biased when it isn’t working?
The answer is corporate interests. Every major news outlet is owned by a major tech company. The news doesn’t have to make money. It only needs to influence politics enough that the tech companies can protect their real cash cows. That’s the bottom line, and it’s why the media won’t change anytime soon.
This video is, ironically, from a news outlet. Despite that, it seems self-aware enough to admit the problem honestly. You can’t really trust the two in this video. They push leftist propaganda all the time. Instead, you can realize just how monumental this problem is if even they are willing to acknowledge it.
