    Tom Brokaw’s World Explodes

    By Kyle | September 15, 2009

    Jeffrey Lord of The American Spectator makes a devastating case that takes apart the Tom Brokaw idea that you shouldn’t trust information that comes from the Internet unless it carries a brand such as NBC’s. In fact, NBC and the rest of the top media brands have a long history of slanting news and ignoring inconvenient facts. Thanks to reader KS for pointing this out.

      Only trust news coming for
      major web sites?

      Tom is dead wrong here!

      The news from the “big guys”
      have often been off the mark.

      The network “brand” died during Memogate. Not so much the incident itself, but the reaction to it. To bury, conceal, deny wrongdoing and squander whatever credibility the industry had left.

      I keep hearing the “layers of fact-checkers” remark, even though nearly every media outlet has laid most of them off.
