Take growing acceptance of the idea the COVID-19 pandemic started with a leak from a virology lab in Wuhan, China.
...your own list of Top Ten Media Lies. On mine, the recent cases involving Lafayette Park and the lab-leak theory are Nos. 8 and 9.

JournoList didn't go away - it got "fortified"...
Lie #1 Biden won.
I can easily think of a few more lies.....
Hydroxychloroquine is dangerous to use against Covid-19.
Trump did not take the virus seriously - yet he was criticized when he halted air flights from China and called a bigot.
Anarchists burning Minneapolis and setting fire to a police station was only peaceful protesting.
There are really too many to record here. Nearly every day/week a new media lie occurred.
I am tired of it all. I hope I am still around in 2021
