Mainstream Media No Longer A Trusted Source For News Or Information

3. We all want to trust who we want to trust

The issue with any source of news is that they all involve people. It's very, very difficult to get an objective news story when people are involved. Everyone has their own angle on things.

What has replaced the Lamestream Media? Websites with a particular ideology or focus. How many sites exist that take into account every possible variable in a story to create a truly objective picture of a situation? I'm guessing that number would be small. Then it's up to the people reading/watching all these stories from various sources to create an overall picture, but, again, you're dealing with people. With their own particular perspective and focus.

This fight over trusted sources of news and information is a waste of time. Outside of video of everything all the time, and some very smart computer with no human input piecing everything together with no bias, everyone will trust who they want to trust, which usually means hearing what they want to hear.

We don't just want facts. We want to be able to assign values like good or bad, right or wrong, to the facts, because facts alone don't make anyone do anything.
