Wish we could just shut the propaganda mills down (fake media), followed by eliminating similar propaganda in primary, secondary, and college educationed and teach abductively based on data and explanations of those data. If we eliminated propaganda out of politics we might be greeted with almost complete silence.
I don't know that media was ever objective, but schools were until Dewey. It does seem like millennialis are more easily swayed by such intellectually and emotionally childish appeals but that may be thought true by every passing generation.
