What is the state of mainstream media in your country? Does the conventional (press & radio/television) media live up to your expectations in your part of the world?
In our part of the world, we have noticed a steep decline in the standard of reporting over the past 6 to 7 years! Articles have become more of "views" than news. We have also seen the advent of "fake news", which when "fact checked" gets exposed! More often, than not, such articles are driven by an agenda which always hurts the interests of the common citizen.
Though this has been too desperate since the last 6-7 years, I will say that this trend took off much earlier when mainstream media houses became dependent on corporate finance. News was hijacked by non issues and the "make-believe"! Corporate funding of the media also plays an ulterior motive of arm twisting the lawmakers and thereby running the show.
This is summarily the state of affairs here! How is it in your part of the world?
