RE: Mainstream Media, Pewdiepie, Fake News and Why Steemit is the future for true Independent Journalism

Lol love it, the steemit rebellion!

Thanks so much I spent WAY too long on this post, many hours more than I usually do and I still haven't got it all in there but all anyone needs to do is look - my question is when did the media stop present actual evidence to support their claims?

I as an individual tried to present the other side of the argument and could back it up with publicly found information, I thought the media was supposed to be doing that for their work but they rarely if ever provide any sources these days - not sure when this became an acceptable mode of practice.

But I really think if we foster the environment correctly on steemit, we have a great opportunity to fill a much need void in the media market - we just need to hold work to a high standard with evidence provided, is that really too much to ask when your labelling (in this situation) someone a racist and attempting to damage their career and financial security.
