SCOTUS Justice Send Warning to FAKE NEWS Journalis
Post# of 65629
The media run rampant in America. They report whatever they want, in many cases knowingly reporting fake news.
Look at the latest two cases involving the Covington students and Jussie Smollett. One would think that on the heels of Covington, the press would have been much more discerning in the Smollett case. However, again they jumped to conclusions in the Smollett case.
These are just two of the more recent cases. However, the media malpractice has occurred for decades. But given the impact of these fake news stories, and the lack of media oversight in their profession, Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas chimed in. His latest opinion is long overdue.
According to The Daily Caller:
Professional journalism groups reacted with alarm after Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas released an opinion Tuesday urging the high court to reconsider a landmark freedom of the press decision called New York Times v. Sullivan.
