All the TV news networks then as well, right? Everyone who plays video of the Republicans spouting lies about the world, without directly commenting how wrong it is, would be equally guilty? More guilty?

This stuff starts with Authority. on Live TV. Not some rando youtube channels.

The responsible news networks really do put some effort into verifying claims and confronting politicians, sometimes the moment they claim it, and they do filter who gets on...

I have no idea what you mean by "More guilty".
