"Our democracy requires rational thinking, it requires an edified populace and it requires a media that is doing its job as the fourth estate, and we’re really in trouble in all three.” - Fred Lokken, Professor of Political Science, TMCC, talks about how the “media loves to distort because it’s not in the business of edifying us, it’s in the business of selling."
- He explains that the model needs to change, using the example of reporting on poll data, which can have paid results to feed a certain narrative rather than producing accurate information.
