I keep waiting for the part where he admits that, in order to generate traffic and thus revenue, the press of the digital age has largely resorted to "emotional reporting" - providing the opinion of the reporter with more gravity than the facts themselves. This moves beyond fair and ethical reporting because it makes an emotional appeal to the viewer to accept the reporter's interpretation of the facts. The use of exaggerating adjectives to hype the viewpoint and lend gravity is what children do when tattling on their siblings; it is also unfair reporting. Thus more and more op-ed pieces
I think he hasn't touched that subject because even tho it's a great point the sensationalist nature of news is nothing new or correlated to the digital age; If you look into the history of journalism it's one of the first topics taken in consideration for its influence. The most iconic instance of this phenomenon is from 1973: “You furnish the pictures and I’ll furnish the war” - William Randolph Hearst it both speaks on fabrication of fake news and on the method he plans on using to convey that message: emotional manipulation.
I believe one way to get people to become better informed is to make sure they understand how much they are being suckered. That is a big incentive to change.
Gran presentación Robert, sobre todo que después de mostrarnos toda la parafernalia que se viene en materia de tecnología nos demuestres lo fácil que hoy precisamente resulta engañar a la gente con los nuevos medios. Y estamos en ese camino, de evangelizar y crear lectores inteligentes. Saludos desde Lima, Perú.
It's not about censoring the press, but about offering alternative news sources, so that there can be no monopoly on information. Consistency of truthfulness will determine whose news is valued most.
Yeah I agree. I want to be a Journalist because I'm after real, legitimate truth, but the problem is I don't know how to get there, in terms of finding the right place to work with/for. I know it's a bit random for someone commenting on a random video asking for advice, but if you got any I'm all ears.
@@richardm5427 Set up your own company to report only the truth. And expand it and hire reporters like yourself. That would be one of a kind:) but you would need a lot of capital
Man, I really don't agree with you.. but I can't judge it. I will give you a tip, try to read "Why study the media? - Roger Silverstone" and you will understand many things that he said. This is really important, I think this video should be more interesting that many others though. This video should have at least 1 million views, but unfortunately, most of the people are not interested on studying media.
Alex Jones is either crazy or really good at pretensing to be. I think the main reason he got banned was for saying thst sandy hook was a hoax and 0 people were actually killed. People did NOT like that. I'm not for cancel culture, but that crosses the line ha. So technically the platforms he's on have the right to ban him, so he had to go somewhere else.
The fact that you decided pizzagate was fake news shows me your not thinking about the whole problem... or doing the unpleasant research. It’s not he’s to find if your put in a monochrome of effort!
OMG YOU ARE TEACHING THE NEXT GENERATION OF NEWS REPORTERS, THANK YOU! Hopefully they will follow your, truth and honesty! But I think think they will follow the money! They will follow the bull 💩 because they will get paid for it! Too sad! trump might just win! 😢

By CNN right? Exactly. I wish people would believe it when they are lied to and stop rewarding these organizations by continuing to believe them. We are literally in the middle of these lies as we speak with this pandemic.

@@manuelaconteaccademia Except that didn't happen. Also, the purported quote was 1897. Fake news about fake news.
Every media source should be treated as entertainment and not news.

I'm just imagining some TH-camr reporting war crimes while nonchalantly mining for diamonds on Minecraft.
Thank You for the informative information!
We need more people like you who will give us the truth!
Go Robert! Wonderful insights, especially the point about being smarter news consumers. We can't do it alone.

Came here from Imgur. Was not dissapointed! Great talk!
Everything is not fair game in the press. Groupthink and editorialism have erroded credibility.
There is no longer such a thing as journalism.
Journalism is dead, Dan Rather killed it. They don't report what doesn't fit the main stream propaganda narrative.

@@haniamalia580 A youtube channel too seems like a good idea 🤔. But it might get demonitized.
This is happening in the Philippines since Aguinaldo
Thax dia we learn
Sadly bad actors feel the same way, and who is going to dictate what reality is 🤔 who?
Traducción en español?
Typical anti-speech. Nothing said here. You're part of the problem of journalism; words come out of your mouth but nothing is being said.

What rigorous investigations? Ugh...
Correct!
Waw beautiful speech
So what happened to Alex Jones... why then silence him...
He is too real

To afflict the comfortable? Because being comfortable is somehow immoral or worthy of ridicule? All you need to see here.
jesus christ, stop being so literal

Trump bashing...first 10 seconds...yawn...next
@Daniel Muscalu Yes. The news is such a joke. They don't deserve any respect after countlessly lying about pretty much everything for decades
What a lot of rubbish
All this rambling and nowhere in his speech did I hear the word "reporting facts".
Propoganda lol
This video is fake news.. the irony is painful
... stick a fork in this video… This is terrible. We need something like Radio Free America...Vote Trump/Pence 🇺🇸🇺🇸

Daniel Muscalu also... strangely today pizzagate is now trending again on twitter. Interesting. That has been blocked for YEARS!
