Quote of the Day | 0114
The newsmedia’s compulsion to swarm all over certain news events – shootings, bombs, personal scandals, leaks – poses a genuine risk to the media itself. Its clout weakened by fragmented niche audiences, the media only unites in covering such topics en masse. Which offers opportunities for genuinely effective and damaging manipulation from abroad, some of it highly convoluted. Watch out for ultra-salacious leaks about Donald Trump or his personal entourage that prove partly or wholly false. Such fake news will precede or render ineffectual real revelations.
