I'M SURE JOSEF STALIN WOULD AGREE

NBC News’s Lester Holt has some ideas about the media industry that only leftists are cheering about. While accepting an award at the 45th Murrow Symposium, Holt said these days it’s not necessary to present both sides to an issue.
"I think it’s become clear that fairness is overrated ... the idea that we should always give two sides equal weight and merit does not reflect the world we find ourselves in." 
"Where facts are settled there doesn’t need to be an alternative viewpoint presented."
Think of all the time we'd save, if we apply Holt's suggestion to, say... the judicial system

WHO NEEDS BOTH SIDES, RIGHT LESTER?
"Currently, Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin is on trial for killing George Floyd by kneeling on his neck, as it appeared in cellphone videos.
You may remember something about this: It's why America had to burn in 2020."
ORWELL HAD THIS ONE COLD:
"We, for thousands of years, imagined that the sun revolved around the Earth. The point of journalism is to continuously press against what we think we know, demand evidence, and show it to the public.
It's not to affirm what the ruling class declares."
