  • We explore how we came to be in this age of rampant misinformation. We explore how propaganda came to be, the rise of the internet and conspiracy theorists, and then how social media and influencers somehow became experts. We talk about magazines like the National Enquirer and the importance of journalists to get the facts right.

    Everybody can claim that they are a qualified journalist. And even if they are trained journalists, they are not necessarily good at their job. I have read a lot of misinformation from journalists.

    I know you all likely have drastically different takes on this, so let me know your thoughts! Have you found an unbiased agency you'd recommend? Have you had family or friends that were dug into a trench of misinformation?

    The problem is that CRITERION is not an innate trait, it's difficult to obtain and retain. Many people rather live without it altogether anyway, truth hurts sometimes. However, "trained" is a tricky concept, a double edged sword, maybe you put too much faith in that adjective. Lies from "trained professionals" have always been around, even from "expert" scientists. Ever heard of Sylvain Lesné?
    Thanks for posting, it's a very big issue these days.

    i say listen to them but trust no one, trust is tricky, likes to stab you in the back.
