Out of touch elites?
I always though the MS stood for Microsoft
Main Stream Media

Who do you think *owns* the press? Hello.
Or Lame Stream as Styxhexenhammer666 would say
Elon playin dangerous games
What I notice about a lot of "news" sites is that they have a lot of feature articles, and not a lot of actual news
Yeah, I would say most "news" articles are basically editorials
Which is a shame
alot of MSM uses fuckin tweets as reliable sources
It's the "opinion of the people" but it's handpicked
they also link to eachother instead of actual studies when they attempt to talk science
Also, they're not reliable sources, usually, unless their identity can be confirmed
yea but even then hand picked as you said
I can't do that, nobody should be able to. It's like we've forgotten good journalistic practices
Link to each other as sources? Are we back to "proving" people ever thought the world was flat?
"As Coolcat69 says, we are in a crisis and ICE should be abolished immediately."
Most of the linking to eachother happens in the gaming journo sphere
they talk about some study but they never link you to it
I'm glad I'm not into gaming journalism
Dang, journalists really are getting masters degrees. They're pulling stunts academics have done since the 1800's
It's so bad
i mean im coming from the perspective of someone who has done research papers and had to cite my sources as primary, secondary, or tertiary
if you have no ACTUAL evidence to support your claims then you arent worth reading
Yup that's the way it's supposed to be, but there have been moves by advisors to get their names off papers to make it not look like a circle. There's one name I know of for sure having attempted (but the student adamantly refused), but I'm having a hard time finding an article due a more prominent scandal that guy had.
Damn
I had a bad experience with papers..
I did programming, and the NCEA required written papers
For the course to be eligible
So know what they filled that with?
"People and games"
ILUVBLMxxXX6942069XXxx tweeted "ICE is terrorists" (1 like 2 RT).
PEOPLE THINK ICE ARE TERRORISTS
"Women in games" "Ethics in games"
Fucking hell, complete waste of time.
Yeah it's like.
It's not JUST on you when your degree turns out to be worthless.
A lot of the times there's no way to know the classes have been loaded with garbage.
Drives me nuts how this obvious point doesn't occur to most people.
Well, the other thing with that is that the job market changes
