I agree 100%!
Unfortunately, the media (even the so called "mainstream media") slants thier stories to align with thier viewership. It doesn't help that social media algorithms do essentially the same thing. Clickbait media makes BILLIONS! Challenging the 'so called truth" from a media site gets you ostracized & cancelled. The reality is that the truth lies somewhere in the middle once you take the slant out of the news. I miss the days of only 3 major networks, very little slant, and if there was to be a slant it was confined to the op/ed pages, not the main article.
Not a fan of his, but Obie warned about this long ago... 2017ish?
