It’s actually the opposite if you are thinking rationally. If all news are corrupted, how are you able to discern between what is real and what is fake? It’s not like you are an expert on all these fields, global issues and have time to fully analyze everything. Most likely you will then be choosing whatever fits your narrative.
If you want to do things properly you want reputable people and organizations to depend on.
I agree wholeheartedly with that. We all have to be aware of our own and every other entities bias. The easiest example of how important it is; is with racism in technology. Where technology isn’t made for for example afroamericans because the team who developed the technology didn’t have a diverse enough team to discover that their tech is actually formed for mostly white people, even though if the team had been given the choice would have rectefied it. But because of diversity wasn’t aware. Which also happens with news too.
Well, I work with communication in my dayjob, so I’ll have more experience with media stuff than most people. But you should have learned this in high school most likely.
I knowledge some bias, yes. But not at the level the anarcho communists are arguing for. Like there are an incling of truth, but there is only so far you can drag it before it becomes loony toons.
No, both independant and large news agencies can be reputable. It’s more about context, but larger entities and the employees will have a bigger responsibility in the public eye.
I’m not so convinced you are able to discern what independent news sources that you can have confidence in though.
yup, for sure.

An interesting narrative. There is hardly any organization or media you trust

Its not necessarily about corruption, but every media (and every person) has their bias. Thats why we need critical thinking.

You’ve said the same things about the other side of stories you’re sharing on here.
I’ve said they were terrible

So you must know then that media outlets contain geopolitical bias?
