The Media That Cried Wolf

The Media That Cried Wolf:

Image result for free clip art Crying Wolf"In a week in which CNN cried wolf when there was no wolf by falsely condemning Trump for poor fish-feeding habits, is it surprising that decades-old charges of sexual impropriety being leveled against Judge Roy Moore aren’t being unquestioningly accepted  by voters?
We can all remember a number of times when the media has proclaimed a wolf was present when we later discovered they were wrong.
There is Global Warming… err, Climate Change where we were told that by now the world would be doomed but somehow that hasn’t happened.
We were told that the black man shot in Ferguson was holding his hands up to surrender.
In the last century the media informed us that overpopulation would lead to mass starvation. Of course, that was bogus."
