I’m not much for government intervention, but in this case I might make an exception.
Perhaps it’s time to legislate that any media that present easily obtainable factual information in a false manner could be sanctioned after first being warned of their offense(s). Such offense(s) would have to receive a full and factually correct correction in EXACTLY the same format and manner/location as the falsely presented information was done initially. It would also have to be duplicated in relation to the number of references made to such incorrect statements.
Repeat offenders (three times and you’re out) would be subject to both fines and, in egregious commissions of distortion or falsehoods, jail time.
Media is welcome to present their lies, but ONLY under clearly identified OPINION banners which are fully observable and identifiable when and where they do so. Violations of same should be subject to the same sanctions as noted above.
When schools do NOT teach their charges the skills necessary to separate fact from opinion and propaganda, they are part of the problem and they, too, need to be punished.
Their job is to teach skills, not infuse indoctrination.

Another magazine for pearl clutching liberals. Among the nonsense stated is “even if” such things as the “Muslim ban” “fail in court”. It was never a Muslim ban. It was a ban on seven Muslim majority nations, among forty plus such nations. Obama had a similar list. The Supreme Court backed Trump because federal law says the president can ban whomever he chooses, and the Court has upheld that several times.

They also claim “ICE has loudly trumpeted its escalation of raids in those cities, sending the message that any notion of sanctuary is pure illusion”. Which of course it is. If anyone thought that those cities could defy federal authorities they are the ones that are under an “illusion”.
