What should be reported on then, according to you, if not the wholesale takeover of our country by an unelected billionaire and how more than half of our federal legislature is okay with it?
But if documentation is your concern, get your phone out every police officer you see and upload it somewhere
I’m trying to understand what you mean by this. I should be creating a database of police officers that I see? Or recording every traffic stop I drive or walk past? For what reason exactly? And how does this relate to the topic at hand?
No one is saying it shouldn’t be documented. You just threw those words into someone’s mouth.
What is laughable is to think news outlets are going to be the historical record. What is effectively propaganda at this point is documentation. They all know how to distract you with chaos headlines in the media for them to focus on while they do the actual messy work of taking people away.
Curious, how many bathroom bill reports have their been in the media?
The historical record will be remembered by what we were able to capture and publicise. Record every government interaction and put it on YouTube, tik Tok, your hard drive, somewhere. THATS what will fill the historical record.
Don’t disagree at all. But we have reporters for a reason, and scolding them for actually talking about the corruption at the very highest levels of govt that is enabling all the other stuff to happen (including people being taken away) feels very counterproductive. If those platforms and hard drives are destroyed, what people remember may be all that is left, so broadcasting this information to as many people as possible remains important in my opinion.
It wasn’t scolding them (individual reporters) for doing their job.
It’s scloding them (news orgs as a whole) for not doing it.
It’s not hard to see a trump presidency sells more media with those rage bait headlines. They endorsed trump and refused to endorse Haris. I blame them for that.
