We have reached a state of utter absurdity, where journalism schools teach students that their own personal truth or chosen narratives matter more than reality. In Slanted, Attkisson digs into the language of propagandists, the persistence of false media narratives, the driving forces behind today’s dangerous blend of facts and opinion, the abandonment of journalism ethics, and the new, Orwellian definition of what it means to report the news.

Excellent.
You can hear the “liberal” screams from here.
May 25th, 2021
Exactly where do you hear them? In a room where walls are (oh-so) soft and there’s pretty lights and soothing music and those nice medicines.
May 25th, 2021
Liberal here with a degree in journalism. This is absolutely correct, major corporations tend to want articles that sell, so reporters are incentivised to approach things from a certain angle. The editors are the major guilty party when it comes to ’spin’, and by far the worst offenders are news sources owned by Rupert Murdoch, who have so little journalistic integrity that they’ve repeatedly been proven to print entire articles which are untrue.
On balance, the left are guilty of putting excessive spin on stories, the right are guilty of printing outright lies.
May 25th, 2021
Definitely in agreement with Jack_Milad.
May 25th, 2021
The centre - that’s where the truth manifestly lies. As long as you filter it thru your hyperactive, paranoid, Incredulity App.
Or you could just apply the internet doctrine of only believing the stuff you already agree with. That Sweet Spot where media bias & consumer bias orgasmically converge.
Correspondence theory is, like, so aged hat.

In other words, and more to the point: we have reached a state where moral relativism rules, and absolute biblical morality is no longer admired, cherished and put in front and center of all things.
On a side note, I cannot find an important article where some distinguished specialist (likely in the field of cognition) makes a few related points, namely “morality is the most complex thing for human brain to process, it requires enormous brain computational power” and “part of the brain responsible for processing moral questions is called frontal lobes” and “the future of America depends on numbers of well developed frontal lobes of Americans and decisions they make” — those who happen to read that article and can recall the details, like the author’s name and/or the article title, or in possession of the web link, please let me know.
May 25th, 2021
Lol. And yet again, the “liberals” cannot acknowledge that the left lies every bit as much (if not more, in the current era, at least) as the right, and this, ladies and gentlemen, is why none of us can have nice things.
It’s not spin, it’s bull*%£t.
May 25th, 2021
Gordon, there’s not a major news organisation around that has lied and had to walk back inaccurate statements as much as Fox, The Sun and the Daily Mail. You find a major left leaning publication that’s the equivalent of those 3 hugely popular ‘news sources’ and I’ll consider your point valid. Until then, you’re just another conservative conspiracy theorist spouting nonsense that isn’t based in reality.

Russiagate - The New York Times…
May 25th, 2021
@Jack_Milad: Russiagate, the “very fine people”, the Covington Kid, the cover-up of Hunter Biden’s activities, BLM, the 1619 project, etc. there aren’t enough hours in the day to write down all the lies of the left in the last 4 years alone.
You’re all deranged. You think this is spin? It’s all lies. All of it. No-one disputes that the right lies, but the left? It’s worse, so much worse. Mainly because you’re all convinced that you have some sort of “moral superiority” as you act the clown.
May 25th, 2021
thanks for this
May 25th, 2021
@GordonCoon if you pay attention, there’s no point where the New York Times printed any allegations other than what a third party was claiming. The choice of stories to cover and give time to was weighted in one direction. But at no point did they do anything other than cite what certain sources had said or claimed. That’s spin, not lies.
Any discerning reader can tell the difference. If you think the NYT reporting on what someone else is claiming is the same as the NYT making up the claims themselves, you definitely aren’t educated enough to weigh in on this topic.
May 25th, 2021
Let me break it down for you, hopefully you learn something.
If an article says “a source has claimed that Donald Trump is an alien”, that’s not a lie so long as there is a source making that claim. The decision to run with that article, and presenting it in a way so as to lead you to believe the claims are reliable is the spin.
On the opposite side of the coin, you can present factual information in a manner which makes you question its reliability. “ex-criminal claims that Donald Trump was the president”, calls into choice the reliability of the source instantly. Despite that we can all agree it actually happened, you can present a fact in a manner which makes you dubious solely because the source has been called into question.
THAT’S what the vast majority of news providers are guilty of. Both sides of the field.
FOX goes one step further than that by employing the source of lies. Have you seen how frequently Sean Hannity gets disproven? That’s an employee of FOX News straight up saying things that aren’t true. Not citing a source and airing a dubious statement, just outright making up lies and claiming they’re fact. That’s the difference.
May 25th, 2021
Yeah, no, sorry chap.
If you print a lie and lend it credibility - adding “because someone said so.” Doesn’t make it spin. It makes it a lie.
The left is great at talking itself in circles but a lie remains a lie, whether you put frosting on it or not.
Until you understand this - you will never find solutions or resolutions with others and thus, will be as pointless as anyone that you condemn out of hand.

> Mainly because you’re all convinced that you have some sort of “moral superiority” as you act the clown.
There are many signs making it clear that this or that individual belongs to the left political camp, “claiming moral superiority” being one of them. However, I believe there is just one underlying thing that makes everything else possible and permissible and allowed for them, as long as it advances their agenda — namely “the absence of any limiting principle”, coupled with “deep hostility to the idea of formulating one”. As a consequence, they are unwilling and unable to restrain and limit themselves, and to stop pushing their agenda down everyone’s throat.
May 25th, 2021
@GordonCoon Now apply that thinking to every single time Fox News quoted Donald Trump.
May 25th, 2021
@Jack-Milad
What is your obsession with Fox News? You beat on it like a drunk beats his wife but with the same lack of reason.
Nobody disputes that the right lies. What are you trying to prove apart from the fact that your gullibility comes in a blue stripe?
A lie is a lie told by anybody. Nobody here has aruged that Fox is an arbiter of the truth. That’s a conversation you’re having in your imagination, not here with me.
May 25th, 2021
@GordonCoon because it’s a relevant example. One of the biggest sources of news for a lot of people in America. I’m surprised you didn’t realise that. Or are we supposed to skirt around that massive elephant in the room?
Your claim was that the Left lies as much/more than the right. That’s simply not possible if your particular definition of what a lie in the media is also happens to include covering the claims of what someone or something else has said. Because unless you weren’t keeping up, Donald Trump said in excess of 15,000 things which were proven to either be false or misleading, and due to his relationship with “the news source we’re apparently not allowed to talk about now”, those lies were presented as truth by a news source which definitely leans to the right. There’s no left-leaning equivalent of this.
Giving coverage to statements which may not be true is an important part of journalism, because it provides the public with a record of what’s been said and by who. So when X politician makes Y statement, then a few weeks down the line Y statement is proven to be untrue, people have already been informed that Y statement was made and can properly scrutinize X politician.
Like I said, I have a degree in journalism and the most important thing you’re taught is not to write anything which could result in libel. If only because no news source wants to end up in court having to defend something which is objectively not true. You write the story, an editor gives a take on it, and the vast majority of the time it’ll have some spin but no factual untruths. You get factual statements of what someone has said which may be relevant to a news story. Whether that person has chosen to lie to the news source is a different case.
The alternative would be to not have the public informed about anything ever. Which I’m sure wouldn’t change your life at all. Seriously, this is all a very basic premise that you’re failing to grasp for some reason. But what should I have expected from someone who thinks that you can ‘own the libs’ when it comes to the topic of media lies.

Thank You!! What a GREAT SHARE!! Much Appreciated!!

@Jack_Milad
Sadly, it’s clear that you are utterly delusional and there is no conversation to be had here.
Carry on lying to yourself but please, stop lying to me. Kfanxbai.

This confirms to the rest of the world that the Good Ole’ U S of A should be isolated, ignored, despised, and continue to be the greatest object of ridicule the universe has ever encountered.
You really couldn’t make this sort of crap up.
May 25th, 2021
which one of these guys is correct?
May 25th, 2021
@Jack_Milad - You’re more than wasting your time, I think - you’re acting like that Trumptard’s opinion has merit. You’re obviously a bright lad, so go and talk to your pet, if you have one. At least it keeps it’s opinions to itself.

Sharyl Attkisson’s show airs on Sinclair Broadcasting Network, which is even more horrendous than Fox.
May 26th, 2021
@Jack_Milad The Left never lies , okay Bolshevik BS’er
May 27th, 2021
@GordonCoon
I also have journalism training. You have absolutely no understanding of how reporting and publishing works. None.
You are just another bigmouth, a propagandist, even. Maybe this is even your job - fill up every website on a list with reactionary, ignorant shrieking?
May 27th, 2021
Left or Right, Sharyl is worth listening to.

Journalism died a long time ago.
The msm is merely the Nazi propaganda arm of the Democratic Party.
Journalism has less an approval rating (11%) then Congress

China pays the media and universities to propagate lies to undermine capitalism. It is not matter of right or wrong anymore, it is matter of either Capitalism or Communism wins. You will never hear news about China and all bad of ccp will be sugercoated. Shame on them even calling themselves human
