 nostr:npub1ahqj3ek7s7lrt4ygsthymx0j0vqunam8vc6ejhn9qn7037prm0pq83wjwd I'm beginning to wonder if chiding media for its mistakes itself is becoming sort of a point/counterpoint business--all apart of the cycle. Instead of taking criticism seriously, the executives are using the criticism to fuel revenues. Same 'ol coverage; be criticized for it by reputable sources like James Fallows and Margaret Sullivan; have attention drawn to the coverage; repeat.

Cynical much?
