And still, they wonder why people don't trust them...

...Now, former executive editor for The Washington Post Leonard Downie Jr. and former CBS News President Andrew Heyward have released the results of their interviews with over 75 media leaders and concluded that objectivity is now considered reactionary and even harmful. Emilio Garcia-Ruiz, editor-in-chief at the San Francisco Chronicle said it plainly: “Objectivity has got to go.”

Notably, while Bob Woodward and others have finally admitted that the Russian collusion coverage lacked objectivity and resulted in false reporting, media figures are pushing even harder against objectivity as a core value in journalism.

And if you point out they've just given them no reason to trust them, you're pushing 'misinformation', and against 'social justice' and other such bullshit.

I repeat what I once said: 'Journalist' = 'Sorry excuse for a reporter'
