            It doesn’t make sense to inquire why a few things are singled out as dishonest when the entity in question is big media which takes a myriad of forms?

              No, your question was
              … As opposed to?

              Which makes no fucking sense. Like it’s a cute little snide smuglord gotcha that you can throw out, but what the fuck are you actually asking?

                It’s an honest question with relevance to the discussion. You either can answer it or not. And I already elaborated.

                  Would you rephrase your question then? Because as I’ve made clear, I don’t understand what you are trying to communicate.

                    You said the source brands I speak of can be said to lie about what’s going on and spin it to something of their liking. Here, the question “as opposed to what” is asked because anyone in any position might argue that the sources they disagree with are lying, so in the spirit of the critical thinking mindset which you say I haven’t learned yet, I’m asking what does one source called out as lying have to indicate it might be lying that the other sources anyone else can call out for lying don’t have.
