I’m constantly surprised those who say, “Why are the media so unfair and unbalanced?” The world is very boring. Writing fair and balanced articles is not exciting, and these are not overly shared. The art of journalism is contracting the truth within the law to create outrage.
Pinching the truth creates outrage of a faux sort. Combine sex, violence, sport, and outrage and then you’ve got the recipe for what people want to read. There’s no mass market for a piece pointing out the faults Brexiteers and Remainers in an even way.
