That needs to happen here in the U.S. While we believe in a free press, that doesn't mean news should be sold as truth when it is full of lies. The problem is when opinion is substituted for fact or when facts that push a narrative are mentioned without equal weight to counter narrative.
There used to be a program called "Point, Counter-Point" where 2 people debated the news of the day without personal acrimony. Each gave their version of what the facts said to them. I found it enlightening to watch. When talking heads spin facts and do it repeatedly every day, bias becomes so common as to be expected. Without the effort to present opposing viewpoints accurately and with equal weight, there's no way to formulate an honest opinion.
“Free” press in the US is not free.
Corporations dictate what the journalist says. Therefore, it is not free press.
Abusing their 1st Amendment rights in the process. Hiding criminality behind that amendment negates their existence, just as fraud vitiates everything..
