You mean you trust media that can't be held responsible more than media that actually loses reputation when they do something wrong and can be sued?

So they'll be sued for failing to report Trump's rise to power soon?

Rupert Murdock will be sued for aiding in Fox News? And the deaths he helped caused? The people who he had mobs form because of false accusations of pedophilia?

The WDMs in Iraq that the New York Times helped to sell to the American public?

Reporting that COVID is gone, we don't need to worry about it anymore?

Israel's war crimes being covered up by the media because it looks better?

They'll be sued and lose reputation now, right?

No I trust media which does lose reputation and can be held accountable for when they publish massieve conspiracy theories such as Alex Jones did.

Unlike legacy media such as New York Times which makes up fake rape accusations against whatever country America needs to smear next and gets away with it without repercussions.

Alex Jones is mainstream media, bud
