So the public would love to know why ppl like Arthur c Clarke and s Kubrick were on the appollo 11 mission team but no one will ever allow them to know that. Similar to why they're trying to stop Tiktok. It's all part of a be stupid agenda. So if you want to know why the media starts and does up these melodramas, it's because there's an industry out there that wants to make all that stuff up. It's why wizard of Oz is considered by some to be a documentary. Among other such things.... Like "They Live" .... get them shades but put Newman and the Hansens in there also ...
In answer to: where do you get info. ?
My reply is, by just asking that question, you've taken an important step towards your much better future. So keep asking.
I don't believe journalism integrity is completely lost. I do think many have lost it. There is a poster here who thinks someone in the media would never make stuff up (e.g. Sekeres saying Hughes on IV) but I think blind belief in someone from the media is just stupid.
But I think the nature of sports talk provides less incentives to make things up because you can simply discuss the issue. Petey doesn't need to be available for trade in order for a show to discuss trade possibilities for an hour or two. There is no need say there's a rift as if it is fact when you can simply discuss what to do IF there is a rift.
This is different from news media where there is a race to break the story first and where there's some obvious political agenda going on.
