Maybe they should make a law or something that 1 out of every 100 news must be fake
In the world I live in, the proportion is far higher. Especially if you are talking about the mainstream media. Hell, easily one of 100 peer-reviewed scientific papers is fake.
Nothing can now be believed which is seen in a newspaper. Truth itself becomes suspicious by being put into that polluted vehicle. . . . I will add, that the man who never looks into a newspaper is better informed than he who reads them; inasmuch as he who knows nothing is nearer to truth than he whose mind is filled with falsehoods & errors. He who reads nothing will still learn the great facts, and the details are all false.
