Why is the American media so dishonest and corrupt and what can be done to correct this problem?

Answer 1

The media is what we allow it to be. If the consumers rejected the lies and demanded fair and objective reporting, we would get it.

The problems with the media lie with politics, and American politics can be summed up pretty simply: "Everything the Republicans stand for is wrong and evil and hateful...and EVERYTHING else is OK!" And they mean EVERYTHING. Nothing is Taboo anymore, there is no shame in making bad decisions and such.

There is a basic lack of honesty in society, and it shows in the media. The solution would be for the consumers to self-police their own side, demanding they be honest. But first they have the care.

Answer 2

There are a variety of factors that can contribute to perceived dishonesty and corruption in American media, such as biases, financial interests, and pressure to generate clicks or views. To address this issue, transparency in reporting and accountability for inaccuracies or misuse of power are essential. Encouraging diverse perspectives and critical thinking among consumers can also help promote a more responsible and truthful media environment.
