The Big Money Behind the Narrative—Sharyl Attkisson on Media Bias & Spin | American Thought Leaders

Much of media today seeks to advance narratives to the exclusion of facts, fairness, and accuracy, says Sharyl Attkisson, a five-time Emmy Award-winning investigative journalist. In many cases, there are big interests and big money involved. At the same time, big tech curates what people are allowed to see and applies third-party “fact-checkers” to dictate what is accepted truth. Attkisson’s forthcoming book, slated to be released on November 24, is titled “Slanted: How the News Media Taught Us to Love Censorship and Hate Journalism.” This is American Thought Leaders 🇺🇸, and I’m Jan Jekielek.
