The
media is in a long slide away from their position as the peoples
guardians assuring government remains ethical and law abiding. Today
they protect the government and too often serve as its propaganda arm.
These items provide a brief look at this problem which is badly in need
of fixing.
The alternative media is racing ahead of the mainstream media with investigative reporting and exposing government wrong doing. http://www.naturalnews.com/045420_newspapers_investigative_journalism_online_news.html
If this trend takes hold maybe
the mainstream media can recover some of its lost credibility due to
embarrassment for its failure to report honest news. http://eaglerising.com/6554/cnn-notices-obama-likes-breaking-laws/
This suggests the mainstream
media is sticking to its guns by continuing to magnify things they like
and minimize or outright hide things they don't like. Whatever the
mainstream media is engaged in it cannot be called reporting the news. http://www.mrc.org/biasalerts/networks-dodge-huge-irs-scandal-news-doj-attorney-says-lost-lerner-e-mails-do-exist
The VA scandal continues. Have
you heard the media addressing the matter? This is just an example of
what the media should be digging into and reporting. http://www.westernjournalism.com/sickening-va-administrator-heart-veterans-health-care-scandal-still-paid-taxpayers-nothing/
This former mainstream investigative reporter is doing what her former colleagues should be doing but far too often are not. http://www.mrc.org/biasalerts/sharyl-attkisson-schools-abc-cbs-nbc-how-cover-irs-scandal
