    Research is better, but a lot of people would rather adopt the opinions of pundits and bloggers. So much easier than coming to your own conclusions.

    It's better to not be a moron.

    There is no "The Media". Only morons think there is.

    Instead, there's 190+ countries on this planet that each have their own media outlets providing their citizens with international, national, and local news.

    Some have truth-in-journalism laws prohibiting the broadcast of false or misleading information.

    An example of a country with laws like that is Canada.

    Nobody's expected to blindly believe anything. Only morons think people are.

    Even before the internet, people in modern nations had access to foreign newspapers so they could compare and contrast what their own national media was saying.

    Nobody thinks everything the media says is propaganda. Only morons are that stupid.

    Problem is, morons are too stupid to know what's propaganda and what's not.

    Look at all the dummies that believe every Youtube conspiracy video they watch for proof of that.

    It is better to research but it is EASIER to believe and repeat and that is what they are counting on.

    we lack authorities---popular free press, academia--

    you should note---truth and science are group efforts that a corporate press can prevent
