Has The Media Become Our New Moral Authority?

If you have been watching any news for the last two years more or less, it has become very evidant that this might be the case.

I watched this short but really great video last night by Hive account@stefan.molyneux regarding a study on the journalists, which points out that they a below average ability to regulate their emotions suppress personal biases or solve complex problems. This probably does not come as any new revelation to most of you, as we have seen over and over how the media portray themselves as the moral authority on all matters. They somehow think we will we are that stupid to completely forget that they are in this for the money, it's all about the eyeballs and clicks.

The underlying fact is that the media has set themselves up as the new priests, they call out what is morally reprehensible in the world.

"Goodness is about character - integrity, honesty, kindness, generosity, moral courage, and the like. More than anything else, it is about how we treat other people." - Dennis Prager

What they fail to see it their own hypocrisy, this tends to happen when you pursue a political agenda or choose to pick a side. Their moral outrage narrative highly depends on where it lines up with that of their overloads. The media has basically become the Inquisition of the leftist narrative, similar to how the Klan operated as the Inquisition of the Democrats not so long ago. The same way the Gestapo was the Inquisitors for the Nazi's, there is a growing trend here, which is that mostly happens on the left. Collectivism is the enemy, and the only way forward is the preservation of individual freedoms.

"Hypocrisy is not a way of getting back to the moral high ground. Pretending you're moral, saying you're moral is not the same as acting morally." - Alan Dershowitz
