Sorry, I'm not trying to spam this, but how close is this passage below from the sciam article to the criticism made of journalists who engage in false balance because they don't want to look partisan/liberal?

But this is where media and people need to take responsibility.
@delong.social cites @deanbaker13.bsky.social's response to how voter misinformation drove voter behavior.

That traditional media ad figure seems to be getting smaller compared to digital ad revenue.
