    I didn’t realize how shitty MSM reporting was until they reported on something I actually know a lot about. The half truths and ridiculous misrepresentations belie a lack of intellectual rigor bordering on unethical.

    And someone is going to say, “But that’s not their role. They’re appealing to the masses and need to generalize.” I agree in our current system that’s probably the best they can do, but it is not what a free press should or could be.
