Media's Response to Fact-Checking
The recent vice presidential debate highlighted the timid approach of media outlets towards political fact-checking, especially concerning candidates like J.D. Vance. The response from Trump and his supporters to a single instance of fact-checking illustrates their strategy of bullying the media into submission. Such reactions from Vance and Trump reveal a pattern of insincerity, where they publicly decry bias while not genuinely believing in it. This underscores an authoritarian mindset, believing they should face no challenges or scrutiny, which further enables a culture of deception.
