If you take a deeper look, the news media isn’t as honest as it seems. Reporters often blur the lines between facts and fiction to make a story more appealing for their audience. Dustin Rogers, a comics author and app developer from Columbus, Ohio, has cleverly exposed the dirty side of corporate news agencies in his latest webcomic News Dogs.
Dustin portrays news using a consumption cycle and compares it to hot dogs. I won’t spoil the rest, but let’s just say that it cleverly reminds us to thoroughly digest everything the media feeds us.

While I know that news outlets "cultivate" their new stories, this is not the source of fake news. People are getting their news from social media headlines, not even the whole story. They read and post and then never check up on the facts. I don't think the media is to blame so much as the overall culture of ADD information absorption.
They dont even read the post! Just the headlines!

There are still a lot of good journalists out there. Just because some people scream "fake news" whenever they read something they didn't like it's not automaticall true. Educate yourself, read as much as you can and build your own opinion (hopefully better than feces).
Our media has gone from respected to despised. Where are the investigative journalists today ? Why don't the journalists conform to their own code of ethic ? Ethical journalism should be accurate and fair, support open & civil exchange of views, avoid stereotyping (Journalists should examine ways their values & experiences may shape their reporting,); avoid conflicts of interest; disclose them; deny favored treatment to special interests.......and on , & , on , it goes
Um, isnt this EXACTLY just a more convoluted way of saying "fake news"? (Which Trump has been saying all along?)
Excellent example of why the customer should be treated as the most important part of any process. The whores in the media have yet to learn this.
Your mistake is to think that you, the reader, are the customer of the news industry. In reality, it's the advertisers.
