For the White House, the misrepresentation of the photo and its use on the magazine cover with Mr. Trump staring down at the child is one of this year’s most egregious examples of “fake news” that Trump officials say is intentionally used to try to take down the president. The widely published photograph tops a long list of news items during the past two years that damaged the Trump administration before being retracted, corrected or otherwise proved false.

Now it's just a mixed bag. Maybe the press has become this way because the churches have become this way. A mixture of catchy narratives and partial truths. Trying to chew it all and spitting out the bones is exhausting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest PinkBelt Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 (edited) The American news is biased towards sensationalism. CNN is hampered by their unwillingness to challenge politicians, even when they blatantly lie. They also engage in the balance fallacy constantly by having "both sides" even when one side is fringe and obviously wrong. Fox is basically state TV for the GOP and has the most misinformed audience of all three networks. MSN is in bed with the democrats, they just aren't as blatantly activist as Fox (although they are getting there). In a nutshell: CNN: "He says the moon is made of rock, his opponent says the moon is made of cheese. Interesting debate but we'll have to leave it there." FOX: "Coming up, this honest, kind, caring republican vs a baby killing death panel democrat. Fox news, fair an balanced." MSN: "Hypocrisy in the news today as this family values republican has admitting to sleeping with this woman hundreds of times. Oh, this just in it turns out she's his wife. Well he hates puppies."
