Why is lying accepted today & not in the distant past:The media reports on it, and makes it "normal"

[Stuart G]

...That is it, and that is all of it. When the media reports it over and over.............it seems...

"NORMAL, AND NORMAL, AND MORE NORMAL"...........AND ACCEPTED AND ACCEPTED AND MORE ACCEPTED..


AND EVEN MORE IMPORTANT:........

.A HUGE NUMBER OF PEOPLE ACCEPT THOSE LIES,

AND EVEN ENJOY THEM..PROOF YOU ASK?...THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE AT TRUMP'S RALLIES.

Those people know he lies over and over and over, and my opinion is they like it.

That's it and that's all of it....

1. I also hate it when they quote Putin's lies as if they have to tell his side

[Stuart G]

2. By quoting Putin's lies, and not saying they are, "LIES", the media formalizes ''LYING"

[Walleye]

3. Exactly. It's disgusting. We would've seen it right away during the Cold War

[Stuart G]

4. If Trump ever gets elected to "anything" additional proof. And if he is nominated by Republicans,

it will be further proof that lying is totally accepted by the Republican Party. That is it, ALL OF IT

6. THANKS, GREAT DIAGRAM OF DONTE'S INFERNO. ALSO, sad that few people know what it is or what he said.

7. Yup.. "Both sides"

Reporting has become just repeating what the Democrat and Republican say and then doing nothing to hash out who is telling the truth.
