The "news" continues to take a pummeling at the hands of a media savvy public.

Is it any wonder trust in the media is at an all time low and that people we mostly considered tin foil hat Youtube content creators have more credibility than our major networks?

Can anything be done to fix it?

"In a recent story about President Obama proposing sanctions against Russia for its roll in cyberattacks targeting the United States, CNN grabbed a screenshot of the hacking mini-game from the extremely popular RPG Fallout 4. First spotted by Reddit, the screenshot shows the menacing neon green letters that gamers will instantly recognize as being from the game."

Was this in the news? Well shit... How am I supposed to think this has anything to do with reality?

More fake news.

Will we ever have any sort of journalistic integrity again or just things like this designed to support a narrative that may or may not be found out at a later date?

"The Washington Post has retracted its story about Russian hackers penetrating the nation’s electricity grid with a virus found in a Burlington, Vt., electric company laptop."

"Despite the article ballooning from 8 to 18 paragraphs, the publication date of the article remained unchanged and no editorial note was appended, meaning that a reader being forwarded a link to the article would have no way of knowing the article they were seeing was in any way changed from the original version published 2 hours prior."

It looks good and it is an amazing story.

Hopefully they can stick close to the true story because it is a story that does not need any help to be amazing.

This is not half as hot as putting the gloryhole in the Stonewall Inn on the National Register.
