journalists, are in a position of major influence but never having skin in the game. these are the same NYT journalists wo advocated for the Iraqi war. yet never been to Iraq and speak of whiff or arabic. it's a system where itself reinforces, the gvt / other actors influence the media and the media influences policy. yet those people don't suffer any consequences at all. those are the same people at NYT that slandered Bernie and propped up HC and wake up amused that Trump won. I'm all for freedom of speech, however journalists should be held to a higher standard. coz honestly most journalists except the local ones doing groundwork are pure scum.
