The Fourth Estate is like the rest of society: #diverse and complex, yet immensely important. Several #Media outlets continue to operate with integrity, passion for truth, and professional excellence…yet…
Sadly, many well-known #news brands have fallen prey to the same desire for eyeballs and subscriptions that infects so many @YouTube vloggers and @Instagram “celebrities”.
Posting disingenuous and misleading #clickbait headlines to drive traffic or whipping up non-stories into narratives designed to inspire outrage and division is something we have come to expect from the current political Administration.
To those news brands playing these "Lowest Common Denominator" tricks, you are as guilty as the blatantly propagandist @FoxNews, until your editorial leadership returns to the principles that once made American journalism the envy of the world.
Please get your act together and stop feeding the dark beasts of our national decrepitude. Nourish instead the brighter angels of our lofty potential as an inclusive, thoughtful, and well-informed democracy.
