Without "media mediation," without the persistent truth-telling, fact-checking efforts of well-trained professionals...

My, they think highly of themselves. What absolute BS.

Individual media companies may have hiring requirements, but Journalism is one of the few "professions" that has no standard entry-level requirement, no licensing requirement, no level of educational attainment as a requirement.

If one looks at the "credentials" of some of the prominent names in journalims, one finds that many of them were college or high school or elementary school drop-outs.

"Mediation" is just a leftist code word they use to promote pacifism.
