> These people are honestly scum, representing the apotheosis of cynicism in politics and media.

That applies to the main stream media too. They too stoke fear and hysteria and undoubtedly are far more powerful and influential.

Here is a good summary : http://www.foxnews.com/opinion/2016/10/26/john-stossel-rulin...

In India we have a media company whose singular objective is to expose fraudulent news on main stream media. http://www.opindia.com/ A blogger dedicated to media exposure is a big twitter celebrity http://www.mediacrooks.com/

These fake news writers are small fish...

Funny to see an article complaining about the state of the mainstream media... posted to FOX News. One in a long line of media orgs writing stories about "the media" as if they aren't an integral part of it. Pot, meet kettle.

I am unable to see the logic here. Fox news continues to support diversity of opinion lot more than CNN or ABC. The author in question was a consumer reporter with ABC who was fired once he started changing his own opinions based on evidence.
