"news"
fox news has established in the us supreme court that a media outlet can publish information they know is false and call it news. to me, the word news implies the content is a reasonable facsimile of the truth. granted breaking news should be sprinkled with caveats. we don't have all the details yet but this is what some people on the scene are speculating. for example. i totally believe that a media outlet should be able to broadcast anything it wants. just don't call it news if you know it's not. call it the colbert report. or not news. or fox entertainment. sheehs. the scotus ruled that there's no law that defines news. hopefully, the current or some near future congress can rectify that. if they don't, then we'll need to come up with some other word that means what news meant before its meaning was corrupted. which probably won't hold its meaning for as long as news held its. 2 days tops. any takers?
