I think the use of “anonymous sources” should be illegal.
Publish verified facts, with people willing to stand behind those facts.

Publications that release information (even in good faith) which is later found to be untrue should be liable for judgments in the tens of millions of dollars.

Publish the truth. Why is that so hard?

“One in four ‘Covid-19 deaths’ in UK not caused by the disease.” The story revealed that COVID-19 deaths in the United Kingdom have been grossly over-reported.

It’s probably a lot worse than that. This thing is one of the most successful hoaxes in history. It got civilization to shut down, made millions of people clamor to stick experimental vaccines on their arms, and got a senile old crook “elected” President.

He can’t be that much in the know if he thinks that Trump was voted out.

 The argument has always been that if you do that people won't come forward with any information that could get them in trouble. I do agree that something needs to be put in place where all sources should be registered with an unbiased third party and penalties should be there if the source turns out not to be telling the truth. How you could pull that off I don't have a clue. 
 Like it or not, the current state of "journalism" has proven they can't be trusted to do the job correctly or honestly so some changes are going to need to be made.

Current situation: journalists make stuff up and publish any damn thing they want. They push a Narrative that has nothing to do with reality, and the population believes all the lies.

If anonymous sources were illegal, I suppose people won’t come forward with any information that could get them in trouble. And then journalists would have less to publish, and the population would be uninformed.

That’s a Win.

To summarize: The media complex is made up of activists! They have an agenda. The agenda is to promote their doctrines of beliefs. They believe that we the people are the enemy and we deserve to be punished and ostracized from society. They are the DNC. They are exposed as instruments of an activist force to destroy the Republic by all means necessary. They willingly follow the lead of their overlords.

You'd be amazed at the lengths people go to in order to preserve their world views.

Someone needs to sue and create a new tort called “journalism fraud.”

What is going on is way beyond New York Times v. Sullivan. There shouldn’t be any legal protection for phony media who can be demonstrate to have faked coverage and reporting.

No, not really. You can see it at work on Free Republic. It is also known as coping skills.

 Not necessarily. That goes both ways.

talking to a woman who recorded him during what he thought were "dates"

Can you imagine what he was thinking as he drove away from the breakfast date-turned-O'Keefe confrontation?

One minute, he's a stud with a hot babe, next minute, he knows he's out of the babe AND a job...

CNN technical director, talking to a woman who recorded him during what he thought were "dates"; she had purposely targeted him and videoed him surreptitiously.

I love it when our side uses their old commi techniques against them.

Classic honey trap, go boys go, I want to see more.
