I think the only way you are going to get the media to be a little more honest (I think there will always be one bias because the news is reported by people with opinions, agendas, and bias themselves; it’s just an extension of them) is to hit them where it hurts; in the pocketbook; advertising. It may require boycotts of some sort or other methods that we might become aware of through ex-employees or principals. Determine all the ways that they make their money then find methods that cut it off and let them be aware it is because of biased reporting, pushing political agendas, and ideaologies they are pushing that are harmful to the American public.

There are other methods I can think of but since big media worships at the altar of big money I think that’s ^tge bestway to get their attention .

The point of this article is there are much more powerful interests behind the news networks for whom the stakes are much higher than ratings or selling a few newspapers.

Frankly, I do not know how they can be touched. An effective way to work around them must be found.
