RE: The Death of Cable Television

in LeoFinance5 months ago

The problem is propaganda is nothing more than a point of view expressed over and over. Whether it has much basis in reality is not relevant.

It is funny how the mainstream news media went from being trusted to now just outright liars. This was mirrored by the financial networks. As you mention, cable news takes it to a new level.

Actually, it was always that way, people didnt just realize it. Rather, Brokaw and Jennings told us what they wanted. Today, the claims can at least be double checked.

Of course, with #ai, this is going to get really interesting since we will see deepfake videos that most believe.

Sort:  

It used to be "Believe none of what you hear and half of what you see" now it is "Believe none of what you hear and NONE of what you see"
Trust is near 0% and that is not good. This fragmentation is everywhere, not just tech. I don't remember people fighting so viscerally over stupid political positions.
I guess there is not much we can do about it except pick up the pieces and build something better, but we need trust, trust is the glue that holds it all together.

Divide and conquer. That is what they use.

We are going to see everything change. Blockchain can help with the trust. But you are right, trust has left the stage.
