[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just because you don't like it, it doesn't just  become left wing or liberal. Where are the lies? The propaganda? The ridiculous out of context examples that apply to nothing? Sensationalizing material as more important at times, maybe, but nothing is untrue. You'll have to give examples. I really haven't seen any.

RW media...yes, lies, propaganda,  and cherry picking. All the time,  and getting worse. [/quote]

At some point the right wing decided it was OK to automatically and immediately label any news that was contrary to their narratives and worldview as "fake news."

It's disturbing.  Some of us are old enough to remember when the right wing didn't do that - Reagan, for example, famously said "trust, but verify."  Today's right wing verifies nothing, they automatically trust their "trusted" sources and automatically and immediately label anything contrary as "fake" and "leftist."

It's a retreat into delusional fantasy bubbles and echo chambers and allow bad actors to distort, lie and propagandize completely unchecked in any way whatsoever.

How do we fix the broken right wing?[/quote]
