Actually, maybe reliable should be spelled re-lie-able when it comes to the media. The job only requires the ability to pick up the smallest, most insignificant item and puff it into major headlines. Air 5 of them and insert 4 minute ad spreads between them and you have a half-hour news program. Ta-Daaah.
Then the next day you get to repeat some of it, which is like trying to make a 2-day old doughnut look fresh. Bah-Dah-Bum
Not to be outdone in political knowledge, football coach turned US Senator Tommy Tuberville R-AL said: “Our government wasn’t set up for one group to have all three branches of government — wasn’t set up that way,” Tuberville continued, saying incorrectly: “You know, the House, the Senate, and the executive.” https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2020/11/13/alabama-senator-elect-tommy-tuberville-botches-historical-facts/6283806002/
The executive branch is only listed here because it needs Twitter and FB to tell it what the users are polling so that the executive branch can react accordingly.

You didn’t complain much when the Diaper Don was tweeting lies non-stop.
And it’s odd how you’re upset about the sacred free market doing what it thinks is in its best interest.

@Nyckname: can I guess you are aiming at my comment or have I misinterpreted?

For the past four years we had three branches of government: the legislative, judicial, and Twitter/Facebook.
