I agree with most of this, but I won't give the Legacy Media that excuse... They don't have to send a film crew. They should have access to the very best investigative journalists the world has to offer. Send out a couple to look into these things.... - davn8r...
As a side note - this is one of the issues that I believe needs to be better solved for AI engines - the development of a true 'trust engine' if you will.... Ah yes, man's search for "Truth" has always been elusive. The comments can also impact your perspective wildly. You can have a first impression about a post and then go to the comments only to do a 360 based on whatever the most amount of people are saying....
