One can, with virtual certainty, use an EEG or fMRI and detect sociopaths, their brains simply don’t respond to stimuli the way a non-sociopath’s does.
How many government employees would pass the test?
The term Yellow Journalism was first used in the 1880s. It’s not new.
Joseph Campbell describes yellow press newspapers as having daily multi-column front-page headlines covering a variety of topics, such as sports and scandal, using bold layouts (with large illustrations and perhaps color), heavy reliance on unnamed sources, and unabashed self-promotion. The term was extensively used to describe certain major New York City newspapers around 1900 as they battled for circulation.[4]
Frank Luther Mott identifies yellow journalism based on five characteristics:[5]
scare headlines in huge print, often of minor news
lavish use of pictures, or imaginary drawings
use of faked interviews, misleading headlines, pseudoscience, and a parade of false learning from so-called experts
emphasis on full-color Sunday supplements, usually with comic strips
dramatic sympathy with the “underdog” against the system.
They never reported “the truth”, they reported what got your attention which made them money!
Look at the lies the antifederalist press said about Washington! He “wanted to be king”, how ridiculous!
Jump to the Civil War, it’s like the Northern press & the Southern press got together to see who could lie the most in quantity & quality.
The goal has always been to sell newspaper, pamphlets, magazines that is gain an audience. Get you to read, listen or watch! What’s telling the truth have to do with any of that?
It’s always been a form of entertainment!
Comparing to or expecting the truth is like comparing to or expecting prostitution to be love!
People forget that at their own peril!
Not very many really want to know the truth of His Word or want to put in the time to be taught it and revealed by God. God will not prove anything to anybody without huge personal commitment to know His Truth. It is hard to stand and be taken seriously in this world. We see what is coming, through Jesus Christs and the Apostle Pauls records, He warned us, "The world will hate you, just like it hated me."
Everyone in media and Democrat leaders knows these stories arent true. They also know that people will be influenced to believe Trump is a criminal if he is simply accused enough times, even if each individual instance is a lie.

Right.
Next phase (and it’s probably happened to some extent in the past) is to deliberately sow photoshopped images and video, digitally altered soundbites and use other frame job tactics. Even more than a phony dossier they set up.
Instead of Forrest Gump going everywhere with famous people or Fred Astaire dancing with a Hoover vacuum, have Trump looking furtive and shown with Russian lobbyists and gangsters or a Cohen tape digitally making Trump say “Geez, if the American people hear I did this I’m through. Bury this stuff for me.”
They had comedy albums in the 60s and 70s of soundbites and then real announcers making them into gags. And everyone knows how meme images aren’t real.
Is this the next sinister phase, with CNN and NYT taking two weeks to admit “Oh, yeah. We knew it was all bogus. Too bad.”
The first two weeks they will line up “experts” to lie that the voiceprints show it was Trump. Then be disproven later.
When I was a kid, they used to say, If you send in 2 SKIPPY Peanut butter labels you would get.... (whatever it was).
Perhaps that is how the News media got their press credentials.

Funny.
Except the media even sent counterfeit Skippy labels. So used to faking it they couldn’t stop themselves.
By the way, my Captain Midnight decoder was genuinely procured by genuine honest means when I was a kid.

Chuckles. Probably too high a standard for journalists.
Not many I suspect.
Not necessarily a bad thing, non-malignant ones can make dispassionate decisions and are reasonably good leaders. Ones who have had abusive childhoods, and learned abuse as a life pattern, not so much...
Has any reporter ask the Jerkoff from buzz feed to produce the “evidence” he promised to produce in 24 business hours
Freedom of the Press is for all citizens, just like the 2nd.
It is nor just for some elite class called journalists.
Letters to the Editor, such as by Benjamin Franklin as a pseudonymous teenager, are just as much protected as anything else.
So are blogs, despite what some... persons... on this forum assert.
nor = not.
