"And we don't know how to deal with it."
Lemmie give you a couple of hints.
Accept the fact; we are not limited to a single household/water cooler/street corner when we discuss the "news". We have a virtual gathering place far larger than you can imagine.
Collectively, we are on duty 24/7. Someone is always watching, and willing to fact check everything. We fact check ourselves. Well, maybe not the people over at the FUnnies, but that's another post. Our community will respond to a ridiculous post as vehemently as we do to ridiculous "news" piece.
We know you're biased. We are aware, your owners, publishers and editors hire people they feel comfortable with, read "like thinkers". That's OK we would do the same thing if we were in the same position, but keep the bias on the OP/ED page.
Try this "The President announced today....", instead of "The uneducated President stumbled today when announcing......" The first is news, the second is bias.
I have to leave now to meet friends for Thanksgiving dinner, but if you need more info, please feel free to contact us.....some one is always here.
