2019-01-24 04:18:01 UTC

2019-01-24 04:28:02 UTC  

Yeah, that is a shit show

2019-01-24 07:57:58 UTC  

So on an idea in response to the covington fiasco, and how to make journalists more accountable: lets take away the tax-free airwaves from MSM. They were supposed to be providing a service by keeping people informed and have instead gone for ratings. Lets legislate that all news COMMENTARY be clearly labeled and displayed as such to separate it from the news. Either that or somehow elevate actual journalists so it's easier to separate fact from opinion.(edited)
The idea from what I remember was that the news were providing a service by informing the people, so they got a special tax exempt status.
They've become increasingly commercial.

2019-01-24 07:59:15 UTC  

just ban them from every government press conference

2019-01-24 07:59:50 UTC  

So basically like every authoritarian country?

2019-01-24 07:59:57 UTC  

why?

2019-01-24 08:00:32 UTC  

any responsible news outlet can attend, but not unresponsible ones

2019-01-24 08:00:57 UTC  

Just for sake of curiosity, how would you define 'responsible'?

2019-01-24 08:01:20 UTC  

where's the bar? next time a "lee harvey oswald" just says he is a journalist, and now he can enter every government press conference?

2019-01-24 08:01:39 UTC  

have an error rate lower than X

2019-01-24 08:02:49 UTC  

But then how does one determine an error rate? Keep in mind that in this hyper speed age; people rush in on a story and bound to make errors

2019-01-24 08:04:38 UTC  

that's the problem

2019-01-24 08:05:07 UTC  

how does the government decide on who may send journalists to their pressconferences now

2019-01-24 08:06:24 UTC  

i don't consider every mistake a real grave mistake. like reporting that 4 people died in a school shooting, when it was only 3, in the first minutes, is normal.

2019-01-24 08:06:42 UTC  

not watching a video, and pushing your own agenda, is clearly a violation of what journalism is.
