Why no one trusts the Mainstream Media.

Comment:

The problem goes much deeper than even this.  There is an enormous amount of control of the media by just a few big corporations.  

It is fair to regulate corporations, in my opinion.  That is because the government creates corporations, and therefore the public has an interest in their behavior.  If the corporations are going to sponsor irresponsible reporting, then they should be held accountable.  

First Amendment applies only to private individuals and organizations.  If a publicly held corporation steps out of line, the First Amendment should not be a factor in regulating them, in my opinion.

By the way, when Attkisson uses the words "no one ", she should qualify that.  Evidently, there are plenty of people being taken in by the media, or otherwise, there would be no problem.
