    Was it factual reporting when CNN, by all accounts a reputable American media outlet, lied to the entire world and claimed that their own employees had personally seen Venezuelan security forces burn an aid truck? An aid truck that was later proven to have been burned by an anti-government protester when cell phone video footage of the event was released to the public?

    You respect media outlets that the people who run our society want you to respect and you disregard the ones they don’t want you to trust. Your feelings about which ones are reliable have absolutely nothing to do with which ones tell the truth.
