Back in the early 2000s before social media, google news aggregator revealed how much journalists lied. Straight up propaganda in some cases.

I made a prediction back then that journalists would up their game and only publish the truth. I was wrong.

Now social media is expansive and obvious lies are called out immediately but they dont retract. They still can't stop publishing lies.

Journalists can't help themselves.
