Hold the Media Accountable for False or Misleading Stories

  • da: Jeffry F
  • destinatario: News Ombudsman

The issue: Many media outlets like to stir racial/political issues to obtain the attention of the masses. They don't even have to get the facts anymore, they only say "This Muslim woman said she was attacked by a trump supporter" on their headline. Just to come out 3 weeks later, after retaliatory hate crimes have been commited, and say it was false. Or "Muslim Man Kicked Off Plane for Speaking Arabic to His Mother", because a simple youtube search has proven that this individual routinely pretends to be a terrorist for social media following. Instead of pushing the diversity of American people, try getting the facts, or stop reporting the opinion of others as breaking news.

Solution: Hold "individual media personnel" or "companies" responsible for spreading blatantly false information or witholding key facts.

Connection to the cause: Victim of a hate crime stemming from a false news report.
