So you're saying the reason why people are making fake profiles, spreading fake rumors etc is because of the media narrative?

Why don't you say what you really mean by 'calling for the media to more accurately report stories'?

I'm saying that the media caused all of that through yellow journalism and the pushing of political agendas:

Over the past decade they've been in a race to the bottom of what historically would have been thought of as journalistic ethics. People aren't stupid and can see this. Some people are reasonable and have well thought out rebuttals, some are unreasonable and troll to vent their frustration.

Either way, it was the media that created the entire situation we find ourselves in.
