I admit to be on the side that is very suspicious about journalists, but I haven't given enough thought as to the role of money in their bias. Money obviously trumps everything (pawn not intended :) ), but there's also the question of where the money comes from, or what money is to be made from applying certain manipulations on the public.
All in all I think the notion of an 'objective' media is absurd to the point of puritanism. In democracies, the media is just another political force, like the parliament or the government, only it is not appointed by elections and less regulated, but also has no actual force, only 'soft force' (which in some cases is stringer than 'force force'). |
