It's like these fags never went to j school. I remember every teacher saying multiple times that if your publication doesnt have the public's trust, you cannot use anonymous sources.

if I worked at CNN I would kill myself
Its sad too cause at one point CNN wasn't completely pathetic, they even had a IRC channel at one point for ppl to talk about the news

Welcome to the new norm - you can publish any vague rumor as the absolute truth as long as you say "according to anonymous sources".
I hate that so much. It's why I got out of the game (well the biggest reason) I saw how the perception of journalists was going during the election and I got out. Also I took off the rose tinted glasses and realized it is all about corporate and advertising interest. When I was told by my editor and publisher to kill a story because it would hurt our biggest advertiser, I was done.

HI CNN
If you're on this board you must be retarded
Do some fucking basic journalistic research so you can figure out which board you need to go to for Q shit
It's interesting the biggest news story of 2016 should be the wikileaks releasing the Democrats and Hillary's emails. But everyone has distance themselves from it.
What we're seeing is the inevitable conclusion of the 24-hour news cycle.
Stage 1: Padding >Network content becomes focused on following 'developing stories' - a high speed chase, a police standoff, a guy threatening to jump off a building, sitting around waiting for a political event to start, etc. Anything an everything to fill the air time. We saw this in the 80s and early 90s.
Stage 2: Punditry >Network content gradually shifts from reporting the news to commenting on the news, the talking heads appear, there's a show host and a pundit and a commentator and a specialist to give their meaningless opinion on why a story is important. We saw this in the late 90s and 00s.
Stage 3: Politicization >Network content shifts from reporting events to actively manipulating events - commentary reaches saturation and air time becomes filled with angry rants about what *should happen* or *should have happened* or why people should be outraged by a certain outcome, or why a certain outcome would be good or bad. Journalistic ethics are discarded for political agendas and all reporting becomes consumed by what will advance that agenda. This is where we are now.

And that the people who perpetuate these lies hide in plain sight
I think many main stream publications would have less trouble with fake news if they did a better job at labeling opinion articles. Make it a requirement for headlines to contain "Opinion" as the first word so that way its a nice red flag for people to ignore and not take at face value.

Daily reminder: Trump vetted what he was doing against the State Department, the only procedure available to an incoming president.
Good faith and due process means nothing to Demoshits and leftshit retards, just like the constitution. Concepts third worlders cannot understand, which is why they are third worlders.
Immigration didn't build America, pioneers, conquerors and settlers did.
