One of the worst features of our modern journalist class is its love for spouting abject propaganda while hiding behind its self-assigned cloak of invincibility that protects it from consequences. With their pithy X/Twitter bios and over-credentialed LinkedIn resumes carefully crafted, legacy journalists have decided that they are uniquely qualified to decide what is best for the public. And this includes the right to say whatever they want, true and especially false, to ensure that nothing comes between them and their chosen narrative.
When we, the plebeian consumers of their craft, dare to speak out and offer any criticism, including criticism of their blatant and shameless lies, we are rejected outright as anti-freedom fascists engaging in an assault on the freedom of the press. First Amendment for me, but not for thee, you see?
