The legacy mass-media wonders why the Public won't trust them . . .

OP-ED

The so-called "main-stream media is going through some self-assessment of late, and they see that the general public simply no longer trusts them.  They're not sure why.    I can help explain it to them . . .

They lied about the origins of Covid.

They lied about Covid vaccine side effects.

They lied about Hunter Biden’s laptop.

They lied about Joe Biden’s mental acuity.

They lied about Trump’s “fine people” comment.

They lied about Russian collusion.

They lied about the crisis at the southern border.

They lied about social media censorship.

They lied about “cheap fakes.”

They lied about Kyle Rittenhouse.

They even lied about Jussie Smollett.

This is just a handful of examples within the past few years; there are hundreds more examples, but I don't want to drone-on.

In general, the people do not trust the mass-media because the mass-media/main-stream-media/legacy media willfully lie.

Perhaps if they stop lying, people might learn to trust them again.   

Trust is earned.  After the betrayals above, it will take a very long time for trust to be rebuilt.
