We’re back with part two of the series, How Journalism Destroyed Itself. Today, we’re picking up with point number four: how platforms started leaning heavily to one side, forcing the public to pick sides too. From there, we dive into point five—how journalism has cannibalized itself by doubling down on biases to keep their audiences happy—and point six, the chaos caused by 24/7 news cycles, where they create stories just to fill the time.

Whether it’s “fake news” or straight-up lies, the truth is simple: they know exactly what they’re doing. Let’s break it all down.
