Inconvenient Truths

OPINION: Media trust has tanked because of what media's more woke members do and say. But your old mate reckons it's as much about what they don't, or won't, say that undermines public trust. For example, One News recently ran a negative story about higher gang numbers, while ignoring the massive reduction in violent crime that was announced on the very same day. Stuff did the same thing in a recent story about a jump in EV sales. It quoted the far lower percentage changes for petrol, hybrid and diesel vehicles, but just the percentages - not how many units were sold. Why not? Because over 10 times as many non-EV vehicles (including hybrids) as pure EVs were sold. Which didn't suit the narrative, did it? #media #TRUST_IN_MEDIA
