This is the only newspaper that I subscribe to. Got subscriptions for my Mom as well. It is truly a great read and they do great info-graphics. I spent my career as a newspaper executive and I cannot fathom the trash that they have become. My dad was a journalist and he was damn serious about it...I would pay top dollar to hear his thoughts about what news reporting has become. I remember how proud I used to be walking into my jobs every day...now I am ashamed to even mention that I once worked at these propaganda factories. Anyways - big thumbs up to the Epoch Times. They do great work.
I remember how incredibly proud I was the first time I saw my name on a masthead...now I wish I could have it removed. I must admit, having been around journalists most of my life, that most were pretty decent folk. I have no idea how the entire media world caved so quickly. I truly have no explanation.
I'll start with J school. When I was managing a newsroom, I got to the point where i didn't want to hire anybody who had a journalism degree because the profs, none of whom had any news experience at all, were filling their heads with garbage. Of course now I know that was happening across the board in all colleges. I got tired of saying, "I don't care what your professor said. This is how we do it in the real world."
They have wonderful infographics like this on other scandals too. I subscribe just to support this stuff as well as the news.

Agreed. I’ve subscribed since I new they existed. 2.5 yrs ish. Top notch paper. Their EpochTV is good too.
I spent my nearly all of working life as a reporter and editor and I feel exactly the same as you.
