How do we overcome the current media landscape?

2. It wasn't perfect before, but it's designed to create polarization now

That's a valid point. In Manufacturing Consent, Noam Chomsky talks about how the media was used to sell the government's agenda. The Spanish-American War & Winchell/blacklisting are good examples.

But, as I said in the previous post, there is such a level of penetration now, accelerated with social media, of purposely misleading narrative designed to destroy people's trust in sources that provide actual facts. The way Nixon attacked the legitimate media was child's play compared to what Trump is doing.
