The great sin of the media is foisting false presuppositions on its viewership, knowing damn well it will only sow discord and division among them.

At what point does that become the same as yelling fire in a crowded theater?

High bar for sure - 1A is nothing to trifle with - but it's tim to have the discussion.

    I've seen this on a business level recently. It's the absurdity that if one puts something in writing, the conclusions presented are truth.

    Which is absolute bullshit.

    Lies through omission is their game. “We reported the story”.
