i think it kinda depends on the country and network/feed reporting it...
@beermeplease I remember hearing for years that Canada had a law against lying in reporting the news, now all it seems as though nothing but lies come out of the CBC concerning Trudeau.
@NativePortlander1970 you are right

The media always has a bias. In most democracies it has a Left Wing bias, as few democracies have a media with an extremely strong Right Wing bias. The US is an exception, if it can be called a true democracy, as in recent decades it appears to be a nation of two tribes, each violently opposed to one another, defying logic and facts, with both strong Right and Left Wing media protagonists. Consequently in most democracies the media bias will favour the ruling party, if they are Left Wing, and oppose a Right Wing party. In a tilted playing field and a sparsity of facts, it is difficult for the average Joe to dig deep and find the truth behind what the media delivers to us.

The news is there to sell advertising and make money. Best way to sell ads is with a big audience, and best way to get a big audience is with sensationalized horrific stories.

They always make it seem bigger than it is, and good news doesn’t sell ad space 🤷‍♂️

You ask a question with a 'not' in it and that people should reply with 'yes' or 'no'. It's possible that people interpret yes and no differently here. 😬😬

The News portrays what those in power want to masses to see. A truly free press doesn’t exist.
I’m confused. Yes I agree or no they don’t?

Because they’re lying shit bag emotion manipulators
Not sure I understand the original post. I will say I agree with most statements starting with [quote]The news does NOT accurately depict...[/quote]
