Dude, the other day I was reading some rag because there was nothing else to do in the train... One article was just Trump's agenda without any commentary. How is that news if you don't put it in perspective and with the context that Trump barely reached any of his goals in the first term. Unbelievable.
There was someone here who posted an RNC press release, and was like, "it's news that they said that", and was all upset that we told them it was just propaganda, and that an article about it might be news if it contextualized and fact-checked it. A lot of people don't understand the difference between 'news' as a colloquialism meaning, "new information", and 'news' as journalistic reporting that has certain standards and requirements.
