I recently watched an educational video for young students where they said something like “Journalists are usually sources you can trust because if a journalist lies they will lose credibility and their job,” and I don’t think we’re living in the same reality. Just because a particular news source doesn’t publish blatant falsehoods doesn’t mean they don’t lie by omission or use manipulative wording, and that’s not even getting into the ones that make money expressly off lying. I think maybe they don’t want to teach people to question state propaganda.
