To tell the public what is happening and hold the government to account. That's call "journalism". What we have now is politically motivated activism. A couple young men lit a campfire in an apartment building. It did not burn long and caused very little damage. Normally this would not even be reported.

I see the media for what it actually is - corporately owned with an editorial bias that should be accounted for. 8 hours ago, Nationalist said: The news media is supposed to seek and report the truth and facts in an unbiased way. There's no news media in the world that reports in an unbiased way. Some are far worse than others, but that really doesn't matter to all the circus clowns on this forum. When you're proposing Rebel Media or TNC as better alternatives, that's freaking cringe. You're not looking for unbiased news. You're looking for bullshit peddlers to repeat your views back to you - the alternative facts if you will. It doesn't matter that when the fact checkers and media bias monitors weigh in against you either. They're just another part of the system, maaaan.
