    So editors are now proclaiming that they will conceal true and newsworthy information from their readers just because it happens to allegedly originate from some scary foreign country. Very sensible and productive journalistic philosophy https://twitter.com/dabeard/status/1122609837307772928 …

        NYT reported in Oct. 2016 on Trump's leaked 1995 tax return, the furnishment of which was likely illegal. But reporting on that true and newsworthy information was undoubtedly in the public interest. If it turned out a foreign actor was behind the leak, NYT would now conceal...?pic.twitter.com/VHhQn7dQJA

        All gossip is weaponized. It's purpose is to do harm or cast doubt on its subject. If @dabeard is just now finding out as a journalist to verify information from sources, he has no business in the business.

        These #MSM editors are *explicitly* acknowledging that their business isn't the "news"; it's not "informing". Their business is *controlling* information, *controlling* the news, ie. #Propaganda. 25 years late but we finally made it #BackToTheFuture1984.https://twitter.com/ahnonymous_a/status/1122887778965032960?s=19 …

        Notice how entire #RussiaGate #Propaganda avalanche was based on bogus, fabricated *FOREIGN* "information" ie. LIES, and those very same #Corrupt #MSM editors ran w/it like a dog w/a bone. But now, if foreign info debunks their narrative, they'll drop it. https://twitter.com/mtracey/status/1122833746057732097?s=19 …

        The time when journalists were the information gatekeepers that Walter Lippmann described in is book "Public Opinion" (1922) are over. Social media has eradicated the limitations that were put on the free flow of information.

        So, they're admitting that in the past they didn't "verify relentlessly". Wonder if they'll be newly scrupulous about US government foreign policy. Nah.
