I wonder if any African Americans can relate???
Jesus the the US media is in a complete free fall. They have a lower trust rating in polls than Congress and like Democrats, no matter how bad they keep screwing up, they want to play victim.... with public trust in a steady decline for over a decade and a half.

the problem is, that people still canīt deal with the internet.
since everybody can be "media" the written word have no substance anymore.
they do not know who they can trust and who not. they can not even see if behind a website is a big team of journalists or a one-man-show who want to publish his strange conviction or make money with banners around.
even here i saw a thread yesterday when somebody asked how to make money with fake news. And out there are really tons of fake news sites whose only reason for existence is a purely economic one.
at this point freedom of speech have to be overthought because in irresponsible hands it can lead to dramatic brainwash effects.
but also the established media should take that as a warning because of the fact that bad news leads to better editions end up in the circumstance that only bad news make the round.
