Waco was when I really started to notice the shit show with the media. Fb, reddit and even voat are just an extension of that same song and dance to one degree or another. My advice is to read from all the angles to form an opinion of what is the most probable, then research based on that opinion with the goal of proving it false as best you can. You may still be incorrect in the end but you will be better informed on the subject than most. In short, never fully trust one source.

The davidians ? Or twin peaks? Are the 2 major Waco news stories I remember.
I agree but my point is how the news has changed from being some what worries about liable to today where it's a FACT but no proof is also mentioned in the story.

Agree.
I stick to Netflix but will watch some local news every so often but time out when they go nation coverage stories.

There was and is always a bias but recently it's out of control.
Fact XYZ but yeah we have no proof.

Remember, during the Clinton era they were still lying their asses off - the real difference is back then everybody still believed them for the most part - and the MSM was at least still pretending they were telling the truth. These days, they hardly bother to pretend.
Trust? it's not about trust... it's propaganda. It's about brainwashing. Program the human like you train a dog.
Good Dog, Bad Dog, Look at these big tits, Have a treat, Sit, Don't read these files - Russians are bad.

I can't really agree on the "no longer", since trusting the news was never a thing someone should do. Maybe there was a time when the news and your personal bias were aligned, though.
[–] WhiteRonin [S] ago
News has always been biased.
What I mean by no longer is that the news has over a period of 30 years aligned itself with ??? Paying sources ??? While previously it was more geared towards readership loyalty.
The ultra support of Hillary was blatant paid for news it seemed.
Is it Soros who's paying or are there no professional lobbyist too?

Well, what do you expect with readership dwindling because everyone gets news faster from the Internet? Of course they won't pander to you anymore, but to the people feeding them money. These guys are so fucking desperate, they spread lies about some YouTuber allegedly hating jews, just to get some readers back.
