I was afraid you were serious. Your implication is that since there’s no authority there’s no way to tell what’s fact or fiction, which is nonsense. Obviously teaching critical thinking hasn’t been a priority in America. The Achilles heel of democracy is an uneducated, uninformed electorate, as recent events clearly…

Those that purposely put out false bullshit? There’s nothing wrong (well, there’s something wrong but that’s a fact of editorializing) with putting a subjective spin on objective truths, but to present objective falsehoods as factual news is horseshit.

Who watches the Watchmen?

I agree with you in principle. However, it’s very common that 5 different people with 5 different opinions all believe they’re being objective. So who gets silenced?

I hope that’s sarcasm, but there’s no way to tell anymore since full blown idiocy has been elected President.
