Why is no one calling the media out for not presenting the FACTS of the case. ?
Does the US have a media regulator like we have in the UK?
@zleap @Sydneykaye01 @Bleukitty Only "we the people" I think, Paul. Although I'm thinking the multiple defamation lawsuits coming their way from KR might cause them to self-regulate a bit. CNN was singing a bit of a different tune immediately following the trial.

Just noticed that you have MAGA in your name, Having a media industry that speaks the truth based on evidence BUT still allows debate and expression of opposing views (with evidence to form arguments) will be a huge step in the right direction.
The UK could learn but seems where the US leads others follow, so it is time for the US to lead,.

Given the world wide reach lets hope 2022 brings about some real changes.
I think COVID has potentially speeded up this process.

Saying that there was a BBC article online about I think a black hole merger casing the biggest exp;losion since the big bang.
Problem is the big bang was inflation not an explosion as such.
So even the BBC can't get it fully right but to be fair they need to write for a science / non science audience, which is much harder.
Patronise those who understand the science or baffle those who don't (and those who don't may have expertise in other areas of science).
@zleap @Sydneykaye01 @Bleukitty That right there is the beauty of sm. People are now able to bypass the narrative and hear all sides of an argument. I saw some amazing "regular people", "experts" in their fields add to the covid convo. Just give me the facts- I will assess my own PERSONAL risk and make my own decisions. The powers that be do not like not being able to control us. For all of its ills, sm has given regular people a voice.

Covid opened a lot of eyes I think. There are people who can't be saved but I just write them off.
