The media is unreliable primarily because it’s either profit driven or controlled by people for whom truth is not their primary value. So people who want the truth have to really search hard for it and most don’t have the time to do so. It’s a problem with no obvious solution. Therefore, the Harris campaign will have to spend the time and money to highlight the dangers of Trump, because the media isn’t going to do it.
