There's a lesson to be learned: stop watching legacy media. The billionaires who own legacy media manipulate people and engineer opinions that are useful for those in power. Same for social media and its algorithms.
TheGillos@reddit
So no news at all then?
MoveCompetitive5742@reddit
that is best tbh. if it isn’t an outright lie it is lying through omission of details. unfortunately every legacy media has a political bias and agenda they are pushing.

I've been using Ground News. It finds stories, gives a pretty neutral summary, and lets you know who is reporting on it. There is a breakdown by percentage on the news sources leaning; left, center, and right. It uses the Ads Fontes Media chart, and two others that I don't have bookmarked, to figure out where the legacy bias lies.The Blindspot category is interesting because you can see if the right or the left is under or over reporting on a story. It's not free, but neither are actual journalists.

And it's not just one side, it's both sides
Honest_Tutor1451@reddit
I agree to an extent. One side is definitely worse at spreading dangerous misinformation though.

Absolutely love that guy, he’s done so much for Parkinson’s research. I never knew how much until my father received his diagnosis.
quackman2025@reddit
As they say on the Apple TV show Shrinking, "F@#k Parkinson's."
mediaogre@reddit
Fuck Parkinsons.

I just found out at Easter that one of my uncles was diagnosed with Parkinson's recently, and one of my first thoughts was how much further along research is since MJF was diagnosed. There's been some really incredible strides, and he's done so much that will help people like my uncle in the long run.

This reminds me of the website that only told us whether Abe Vigoda was still alive. The internet used to be more fun.
actual-trevor@reddit
I used to check that website whenever I needed good news, until it stopped being good news.
Silentbrouhaha@reddit
CNN? Do any “reputable” news media outlets check sources anymore?
He has an agent.
Denali973@reddit
Let’s all ignore and he’ll think he did and he is just a ghost.
Global-Jury8810@reddit
They got a picture of him looking all mad.😠
If it were me, I’d laugh and call my publicist.

NewToHTX@reddit
Seems like a Lawsuit. At least get them to print a retraction along the lines of “We were wrong and also whoring for clicks…”
vinciblechunk@reddit
Abe Vigoda lost work when People reported him dead in 1982
NewToHTX@reddit
Deep cut with Abe Vigoda.
vinciblechunk@reddit
We're not too young to know who he is
andrewclarkson@reddit
Personally if it happened to me I'd think it was funny.
usernames_suck_ok@reddit
I think they and MS Now spend most of the day scaring people--MS Now amazingly while harping on the same 3 stories all day (CNN will branch out slightly more). That's why I mostly don't watch either anymore. Real--and, apparently, true--news lives elsewhere.
Electrical-Dig8570@reddit
If it were me, I would check and see how folks reacted so I’d know which of my friends were real ones.
Jolly-Holiday819@reddit
I was wondering why I saw several Michael J. Fox posts here on Reddit this morning.
