The State of the Media

Good luck finding a cable news outlet, newspaper, or online news site that doesn't have a fairly obvious bias on issues ranging from impeachment to the strike that killed Gen. Soleimani to the state of our economy.Bias has been an issue for decades but now objectivity seems to be an endangered species. How did we get this way?In this interview with Greg Corombos, Accuracy in Media Pres. Adam Guillette describes the drastic change in media over the past several years and how media fragmentation plays a major role in that. Guillette also discusses what media accuracy ought to look like and whether it is fair for President Trump to call some journalists purveyors of "fake news." Finally, Guillette discusses how to fight back against false stories and which journalists he thinks get it right most of the time.
