Young people, I suppose, see this sort of "journalism" and think that it's normal. It's not.
For us older folks, it's hard to grasp the idea that baseless allegations from decades ago are now treated like automatic guilty verdicts in a court of law. Kavanaugh should be removed because somebody said so. That's "news" today. Amazing.
The civil legal system and judges are partly to blame, When was the last time a liable or slander suit awarded against these media liars.
