Was the area of the physical reception of news and information - what I mean is, with the increased capabilities of electronic means, so much information is now received through smartphones, tablets and et cetera and from individually picked sources (and then, of course, we have the influence of AI as put forth in the one Netflix documentary). 

I watch my kids and none of them watch any sort of traditional news and to think of how much of society is this same way and how it is only going to get more common as time goes on.  Sadly, it just not seem as if there is a wide-ranging "authority" or even desire to ensure that news that is disseminated is factual.  

I used to receive several media watchdog magazines (Columbia Journalism Review, Washington Journalism Review, Content and so on) and of them and all others, when it came to accuracy in reporting PBS always came out at the top and FoxNews at the bottom, but what we have is too powerful of voices in the US to rail against PBS as being biased (man, what is it about how the lack of common sense seems to ignore what "PBS" stands for - PUBLIC Broadcasting System - the information PBS disseminates is of the best interest of the PUBLIC, not specific interests, except when it does come to their opinion based programming). 

I just find it so troubling that nowadays filtering out the false and fact-checking is so much harder when in the past, reporters and journalists and news organizations used to do that themselves.
