“Why is it so hard to believe the media has an agenda?”
Why wouldn’t it? See Agenda Setting Theory.
All mass media can be propaganda. It’s always a political tool.
Yeah, they were farming for clicks, but to get you to read, not to make money.
You’re not supposed to notice that it’s propaganda tho. Otherwise it loses its power. That’s why you’re getting that gut feeling.
So there is something to be said about a decline in the quality of American propaganda
I think the trick is that when ppl think “propaganda” they think external, to/from another country. But internal propaganda is taboo
The word has a bad connotation for historical reasons but it’s actually a neutral term.
