nice post fd, want to bring it to the white house

i'm here all night try the veal

yes, with the usual healthy balance of thinking critically

not trusting the media is retarded because who the fuck else are you going to trust otherwise

your own experiences

how do you know your own experiences are
a) good sense
b) a good way to interpret the situation
c) not subject to all your social and political biases

your judgement only goes so far on shit you don't know about, and most people don't know a single fucking thing about politics

hrrnk

one of the more unbiased news sources is reuters. there's also some more partisan but journalistically ethic groups like the intercept and democracy now

other than that though the media is known for telling partial truths or outright not updating their info where it's convenient and running stories on shitty "data" etc

as opposed to what, exactly? the american peoples' political judgement? do you really want to listen to the people over an estate which, at the very least, has to do some basic fact checking lest they be liable to lawsuits, defamation suits, and other sorts of things which can check them?

alot of articles just say shit and have 0 sources about accusations,like most of the epic russia hacked da us shit, but when you try and find a news source that isn't fake you get stuff like this

i love the media and i trust in everything they write about

do you think your political experiences as say, a gangbanger in harlem or a white supremacist in rural mississippi are really great sense? probably not

i have yet to see a single alternate media source with credibility comparable to even the young turks, much less a well respected publication like the new york times

TYT and Secular Talk type shows would be considered alternative media as well as the ones i mentioned

TYT is so large and has been running for so now i wouldn't consider it to be alternative media

they have like 8 million youtube subscribers though and were for a time an actual televised program on current TV the fact that they've only been active since 2002 isn't that meaningful
