Hoje sinto-me na idade dos porquês. Porque? Porquê? Porquê? Porque sim! Porque sim não é resposta, dir-nos-à qualquer criança munida de mil perguntas difíceis para fazer. Nesta edição é convidada a filósofa e perguntóloga Joana Rita Sousa. Mestre na arte da pergunta e na missão de criar espaços onde as questões são a acendalha para o pensamento criativo. Perguntar para saber. Perguntar para ouvir. Perguntar apenas para manter a conversa ao lume. Das perguntas curiosas às mais abstratas. Do rol de perguntas difíceis até às mais incómodas. Das maiores, às mais pequenas. Todas as perguntas são motores de conversa. São chispas de curiosidade. Das muito difíceis de responder: Quem sou eu? De onde venho? Para onde vou? Qual o sentido da vida? Das perguntas vitais, mais desafiadoras, feitas por crianças: De onde vem os bebés? Como se fazem os bebés? Porque não me deixas comer todas a guloseimas? Ou fazer tudo o que me apetece? O pai natal existe? E deus? Vida, morte e sexo serão o topo das perguntas mais difíceis de responder às crianças. E elas têm dezenas na ponta da língua. Esta edição também tem espaço para adultos. Dos que mantém à curiosidade fresca e imaculada às que mentem às crianças para sobreviver à pergunta certeira. Em caso de emergência funciona quase sempre a fórmula: “pergunta à tua mãe, que ela sabe tudo” Mas a receita pode ter retorno à casa de partida. O melhor mesmo é tentar responder com honestidade. E em caso de ignorância profunda, dizer que não sabemos e ir, juntos, à procura da resposta. TÓPICOS DA CONVERSA: [00:05:31] A autora encontrou um livro sobre a arte de fazer perguntas e começou a investigar o papel das perguntas e como elas podem trazer diferentes resultados. Também explora o papel das perguntas em processos e como elas podem levar a outras descobertas. [00:08:37] Vários processos, receitas com variações individuais. [00:15:01] Criar algo novo a partir da mistura. [00:19:39] Filósofos resolvem problemas através de perguntas. [00:22:04] Oficinas para diferentes públicos, principalmente famílias. Proposta de jogo para estimular o pensamento. [00:24:51] Contemplar possibilidade de escolhas diferentes juntos. [00:28:05] Linguagem acessa pensamento, mas pode desviar entendimento. [00:30:49] "A importância das perguntas na infância." [00:34:07] Algumas pessoas são mais honestas e curiosas. [00:38:28] Problemas com finitude e sede de mais. [00:41:35] Diferentes ideias sobre escola e futuro. Cão como porteiro. Tecnologia e tempo livre. [00:47:54] Escolher bem, energia pouca, redes sociais. Surpresa! [00:49:08] Ser humano é falível, racionalidade é discutível, verdade é relativa. [00:52:18] Pergunta simples, resposta simples, outras são difíceis. Leia mais TRANSCRIÇÃO AUTOMÁTICA Jorge Correia [00:05:25]: Joana Rita Sousa, filósofa de profissão, Perguntóloga. JOANA RITA SOUSA [00:05:31]: Carreia que é uma perguntóloga. Bom, a ideia não é minha, não é original, não foi o original meu, digamos assim, mas eu há uns tempos encontrei um livro que se chama Arte de Fazer Perguntas, do Warren Burger, um jornalista, não sei se tivesse a profissão que te diz alguma coisa, assim é onde levo, não é? Alguém que trabalha também com perguntas e que começou a fazer uma investigação sobre o papel da pergunta, começou a dedicar-se a perceber que tipo de pergunta, o que é que trazem determinado tipo de perguntas, como é que se pergunta, por exemplo, para inovar, como é que se pergunta. O fim ao cabo é contemplar a pergunta e perceber o que é que ela significa, o que é que ela traz. Como se fossem categorias? Sim, também, é possível fazer esse estudo das perguntas como se fossem categorias. Mas o interesse dele também era perceber qual era o papel da pergunta em processos. Antes de as categorizar vá a perceber, que é muito isso que eu faço em diálogo, não é?

On this day, June 9th, in legal history Warren Burger succeeded Earl Warren as Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court.On May 21, 1969, President Richard M. Nixon put forth the nomination of Burger to become Chief Justice of the United States. This appointment received confirmation from the Senate on this day, June 9, in 1969, and Burger assumed office on June 23, 1969. The Burger court, in addition to being the court that convicted and sentenced the Hamburgler, was the last liberal court to date. It was the court under which Roe v. Wade and the New York Times v. United States, which permitted the Pentagon Papers to be published, were decided.In July 1985, President Ronald Reagan appointed Burger to lead the Commission on the Bicentennial of the United States Constitution. Throughout his tenure as Chief Justice, Burger also held the positions of Chairman of the Judicial Conference of the United States and Chairman of the Federal Judicial Center from 1969 to 1986. After serving for seventeen years, Burger retired from the Court on September 26, 1986. Even after his retirement, he continued to direct the Commission on the Bicentennial of the United States Constitution from 1986 to 1992. On June 25, 1995, at the age of eighty-seven, Burger passed away.It's like Groundhog Day but way lamer, Donald Trump is indicted again.Former President Donald Trump has been indicted on seven counts in the special counsel's classified documents probe, marking the first time a former president has faced federal charges. The charges against Trump include obstruction of justice, destruction or falsification of records, conspiracy, false statements, and a charge under the Espionage Act. The investigation focuses on Trump's handling of classified documents brought to his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida after leaving the White House. The indictment came as a surprise to law enforcement officials, and preparations are underway for Trump's expected court appearance in Miami. This federal indictment adds to Trump's legal challenges, as he already faces criminal charges in New York. Trump's allies have rallied to his defense, while Democrats and some Republicans believe the indictment demonstrates that no one is above the rule of law. The investigation into Trump's actions regarding the classified documents began when the FBI executed a search warrant at Mar-a-Lago and seized thousands of documents, including some marked as classified. The probe has included the testimony of multiple witnesses before grand juries in Washington, DC, and Florida.Trump Indictment in Florida Heads Off Defense Attack on VenueDonald Trump indicted on 7 counts in classified documents probe | CNN PoliticsThe US Supreme Court has revived a lawsuit brought by Jack Daniel's Properties Inc., the maker of Jack Daniel's whiskey, in a trademark dispute over a dog toy called "Bad Spaniels" that mimics the design of the whiskey bottle. The Supreme Court's unanimous ruling is a victory for Jack Daniel's and a setback for VIP Products LLC, the company behind the toy. The case explored the boundaries of trademark rights and First Amendment claims. A federal appeals court had previously ruled in favor of VIP Products, stating that the toy was an expressive work protected by free speech. However, Justice Elena Kagan, writing the opinion for the Supreme Court, overturned that ruling and stated that the so-called Rogers test, which allows trademark use in expressive works if it is artistically relevant, did not apply in this case. The case will now go back to the lower courts, where the focus will be on whether consumers are likely to be confused by the Bad Spaniels toy and mistake it for a product of Jack Daniel's. The decision could potentially make it easier for trademark holders to sue companies that create parodies of their marks on commercial goods.Jack Daniel's Wins Supreme Court Bid to Sue Over ‘Bad Spaniels'OpenAI LLC, the organization behind the artificial intelligence program ChatGPT, is facing a defamation lawsuit filed by a Georgia radio host named Mark Walters. Walters claims that ChatGPT generated a false legal complaint through its chatbot feature, accusing him of embezzling money. The lawsuit alleges that ChatGPT provided this false information to Fred Riehl, the editor-in-chief of AmmoLand, a gun publication, who had requested a summary of a real-life legal case involving the Second Amendment Foundation. Instead, ChatGPT allegedly provided a summary falsely stating that Walters was being sued for defrauding and embezzling funds from the foundation. Walters, who is not involved in the actual case, asserts that every statement pertaining to him in the summary is false. The lawsuit highlights the growing concern over the truthfulness and reliability of AI-generated outputs, as similar cases of misinformation and fabricated information have arisen recently. OpenAI has not yet commented on the lawsuit.OpenAI Hit With First Defamation Suit Over ChatGPT HallucinationThe American Bar Association (ABA) has approved a new law school entrance exam developed by the University of Arizona James E. Rogers College of Law. The JD-Next program, which includes an eight-week online course, aims to provide prospective law students with a taste of law school and assess their ability to learn the material. The approval currently applies only to applicants to the University of Arizona law school, but other schools can seek ABA permission to use the exam. The University of Arizona was the first to incorporate the GRE alongside the LSAT for law school admissions in 2016. JD-Next seeks to address racial score disparities often observed in standardized tests like the LSAT. The Law School Admission Council, which produces the LSAT, emphasized the LSAT's effectiveness as a predictor of law school success and its role in promoting diversity. JD-Next participants have shown improvement in their first-year law school performance, with a .2 increase in grade-point averages compared to non-participants. The program is currently free, and plans are underway to establish JD-Next as a separate testing entity.New law school admissions test developed by Univ of Arizona gets ABA approval | Reuters Get full access to Minimum Competence - Daily Legal News Podcast at www.minimumcomp.com/subscribe

The Coffee Klatch with Robert Reich
Personal history: The Supreme Court I argued before fifty years ago

The Coffee Klatch with Robert Reich

Hello again, friends. After pro-choice protesters showed up outside the homes of Justice Samuel Alito and two other justices — peacefully chanting while walking in the street that lacked sidewalks — the editorial board of the Washington Post described such protests as “problematic” because they “bring direct public pressure to bear on a decision-making process that must be controlled, evidence-based and rational if there is to be any hope of an independent judiciary.” I'm sympathetic to this view. It's one thing to picket the Supreme Court as an institution; it's quite another to demonstrate in front of the homes of individual justices. But surely the pro-choice protesters have a First Amendment right to be heard. I'm reminded of a 1994 case (Madsen v. Women's Health Center, Inc.) in which the Supreme Court upheld the First Amendment rights of anti-abortion protesters to picket the residences of employees of an abortion clinic, saying the ordinance barring such protests within 300 feet of such residences was too broad. The underlying question is how to weigh the First Amendment rights of protesters against the privacy rights of individual justices. The irony, of course, is that Justice Alito's leaked opinion finds no right to privacy in the Constitution. Please consider a paid or paid gift subscription to sustain this newsletter***Alito's leaked decision has led me to reflect back on my years briefing and arguing cases before the Supreme Court almost fifty years ago. The Court I argued before understood that its role was to balance the scales of justice in favor of the powerless. The two political branches of government (Congress and the executive branch) could not be relied on to do this. Republican appointees to the Supreme Court understood this role as did Democratic appointees. Even Richard Nixon's appointees — Harry Blackmun, Lewis Powell, and Warren Burger — exemplified this. It was Blackmun who wrote the Court's 1973 decision in Roe v. Wade, and Powell and Burger joined him, as did four Democratic appointees to the Court — William O. Douglas, Thurgood Marshall, William Brennan, and Potter Stewart.The cases I argued were insignificant. I was a rookie in the Justice Department who was given either sure winners or sure losers to argue because the Department didn't want to take a risk on a rookie — a wise move. (At my first argument, I mistakenly referred to Justice Stewart as Justice Brennan, which caused the two of them to guffaw and me to be mortified.)But I was in awe of that Court. I especially recall Douglas, who had recently suffered a stroke and was in obvious discomfort, looking sharply at me as I made my arguments. Here was the justice who wrote the 1965 decision in Griswold v. Connecticut, finding that a constitutional right to privacy forbids states from banning contraception — a right that would be jeopardized by Samuel Alito's current analysis because, again, Alito doesn't recognize a privacy right in the Constitution.Douglas was also the man who decided that the Vietnam war was illegal and issued an order that temporarily blocked sending Army reservists to Vietnam. He was the justice who wrote in the 1972 case Sierra Club v. Morton that any part of nature feeling the destructive pressure of modern technology should have standing to sue in court — including rivers, lakes, trees, and even the air — because if corporations (which are legal fictions) have standing, shouldn't the natural world?Sitting not far away from him on the bench was Thurgood Marshall — who two decades before had succeeded in having the Supreme Court declare segregated public schools unconstitutional, in the 1954 landmark Brown v. Board of Education. Marshall did more than any person then alive to break down the shameful legal edifice of Jim Crow.Douglas, Marshall, and Blackmun were the intellectual leaders of that Supreme Court. Their opinions gave the Court its moral heft. They drew not only from the Constitution as written but also from the nation as it had evolved. They understood the moral leadership America needed to protect the rights of the voiceless and the powerless. Today's Supreme Court majority doesn't have a clue about the Court's moral authority, and couldn't care less. They are political hacks, rigid ideologues, and small minds intent on entrenching the power of the already powerful, comforting the already comfortable, and inflicting pain on the already inflicted. (Five were nominated by presidents who lost the popular vote. Three were nominated by a president who instigated a coup against the United States; they were confirmed because a rogue Republican Party mounted scorched-earth campaigns to put them on the Court.) The intellectual leader of today's majority (if “intellectual” is the appropriate adjective) is Samuel Alito, perhaps the most conceptually rigid and cognitively dishonest justice since Chief Justice Roger Taney (who authored Dred Scott v. Sanford in 1857, finding that Congress had no power to exclude slavery from the territories and that Black people could not become citizens). The authority of the Supreme Court derives entirely from Americans' confidence and trust in it. As Alexander Hamilton wrote in the Federalist Papers No. 78, the judiciary has no influence over “the sword” (the executive branch's power to compel action) “or the purse” (the Congress's power to appropriate funds). The Supreme Court I was privileged to argue before almost 50 years ago had significant moral authority. It protected the less powerful with arguments that resonated with the core values of the nation. Americans didn't always agree with its conclusions, but they respected it. That respect and trust allowed the Court to lead the way, charting a moral course for the nation. Today's cruel and partisan Supreme Court majority is squandering what remains of the Court's moral authority. That is perhaps the deepest tragedy of all. This is a public episode.

● Secondo il Giudice capo Warren Burger, il sistema legale americano “è troppo costoso, troppo doloroso, troppo distruttivo, troppo inefficiente per un popolo veramente civile”. Secondo Burger, i fattori che contribuiscono al costo proibitivo e alla bassa professione legale includono cause legali “assurde” e frivole per generare commissioni elevate, tattiche pubblicitarie simili a quelle utilizzate per “altre merci, dalla senape ai cosmetici e dai lassativi alle automobili usate”. La mancanza di un'azione disciplinare uniforme contro avvocati disonesti e immorali e il rapido ingrossamento dei loro ranghi sono una serie di problemi che non andrebbero trascurati. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/corgiov/message

Part 2: Nixon Scores in CourtIn the aftermath of the 1968 election, Richard Nixon was President of the United States and John Mitchell was his Attorney General. Chief Justice Earl Warren followed through on retiring from the Supreme Court, and Associate Justice Abe Fortas was forced out of his seat by a wave of scandal at almost the same time. In his wake, Nixon's first nominee, Warren Burger, ascended remarkably easily to become Chief Justice. However, things became far more complicated when Nixon tried to make good on the Southern Strategy's promises by nominating a strict constructionist from the South. Clement Haynsworth, Jr. and G. Harrold Carswell weren't destined to be justices, but their brush with power revealed a lot about the politics of modern Supreme Court nominations and Nixon's plans to engineer a sharp right-wing turn for the Court.Timestamps:[00:00:00] Part 2 Introduction[00:01:53] 07) Into Nixon's Lap (Fortas)[00:38:01] 08) Nixon Runs With The Ball (Burger)[01:16:29] 09) Nixon Scores in Court[01:42:10] 10) Nixon Fumbles (Haynsworth)[02:19:17] 11) Nixon Fumbles Again (Carswell)"God Save This Honorable Court" (https://archive.org/details/godsavethishonor00kohl/page/n7) by Louis M.

What is behavioral economics and why does it matter to you? Melina Palmer, the host of The Brainy Business Podcast, has dedicated her career to seeking answers to these questions for herself and for her clients. Melina always thought she would be a singer, but decided to major in something more practical. After getting a degree in business, she discovered behavioral economics and is the founder of The Brainy Business.  Her business is all about branding, pricing, communication, and the psychology of how we make decisions. She uses her business and marketing background to help businesses with pricing, branding, and conveying their message in the best way possible. Melina started her podcast about a year ago, and it has been a huge factor in growing her business, reputation, and making connections. She shares some insights into her amazing podcast and teaches us a thing or two about business and behavioral economics.  Show Notes: [03:26] Melina has some amazing artwork for her podcast and website.  [03:46] Melina has a background in marketing and branding. She wanted artwork that would showcase fun.  [04:33] Melina's artwork includes a rocket and a brain.  [05:33] Melina has two brains in her office, but the third glitter brain is coming.  [05:57] The brainy business is about behavioral economics, which is rooted in psychology, but marketing is prevalent in every episode that Melina does. It's also about branding, pricing, and communication. It's about the psychology of how we make decisions.  [07:02] Framing is so important. Think of 90% fat free compared with 10% fat. Messaging matters. [08:20] Melina started her podcast because she wanted to help people understand what behavioral economics is and share it in a way that is useful to people. [10:02] Podcasting takes a lot of time, you need to know that you are ready and willing when you commit to it.  [11:09] Melina already had a lot of ideas, so starting the podcast was the right move for her. She also wanted to be the first behavioral economics podcast. [11:44] She was also shifting from doing really hands on work with clients to more strategic work.  [12:34] Melina's podcast has been out for about a year now. It has helped so much more than she expected.  [13:08] A big connection Melina made through the podcast was the Texas A&M Human Behavior Lab who is using the podcast to supplement their learning. Other people are using it to teach their students. [14:03] She is building research with Texas A&M and multiple corporations have reached out for possible projects.  [14:17] This year she is working on transitioning her time out of the business.  [14:57] Melina looks at her download numbers. Reach is important for her, because she wants to become an influencer in her space.  [15:46] Multiple open doors and speaking engagements have come from the podcast. It also adds credibility.  [16:41] She intentionally built her podcast to be ingrained in her business. [18:17] Melina can't use a script for public speaking, but she uses one for the podcast.  [19:36] She also started condensing her intros after they were getting longer and longer.  [20:13] She also looks at reviews.  [21:59] The most common thing people say to her in person is that it's weird to watch her mouth move while talking. It's not about the cookie and cotton candy grapes are also popular topics brought up.  [24:00] Melina makes hand written notes and checklists. She likes how PPS uses Basecamp to make uploading the audio easy. She does all of her art herself and uploads the podcasts to YouTube. She uses Canva for artwork and Headliner for audiograms. She also uses Active Campaign and Audacity.  [26:33] When Melina was young, there was no question that she would be anything other than a singer/actress. She still sings and is singing the national anthem for the Seattle Storm game tonight.  [27:44] In college, she thought she would major in something more practical like business and that is where she discovered psychology and behavioral economics. [29:12] Her favorite book is A More Beautiful Question by Warren Burger. [30:40] Melina is hopeful that one of her near future book recommendations is her own. She's also working on small focused courses on one topic.  [33:55] Darrell's takeaways: Lack of existing podcasts on Melina's topic encouraged her to start sooner rather than later. She considered her own optimism bias when it comes to content creation. She defines success by download numbers, revenue, and credibility. She listens back to her own episodes to refine and improve.  Links and Resources: Pro Podcast Solutions The Brainy Business The Brainy Business Podcast The Brainy Business on Facebook The Brainy Business on Twitter The Brainy Business on Instagram The Brainy Business on YouTube BizChix Podcast Blue Ocean Strategy: How to Create Uncontested Market Space and Make Competition Irrelevant Texas A&M Human Behavior Lab Basecamp Canva Headliner ActiveCampaign Audacity Seattle Storm A More Beautiful Question Freakonomics Predictably Irrational Nudge Thinking Fast and Slow

SHOW NOTES: We don't understand creativity; that's why we don't use it. Be curious. Humble yourself to ask for help: "How would you approach this?" Using the phrase "How might we?" shifts the onus of expertise. It is inclusive, focusing on a process, not solution. Natalie referenced Warren Burger's book A More Beautiful Question. Asking questions does not = ignorance. Cultivate an environment where you can ask questions - at the dinner table, etc. - lead by asking questions.  See Natalie's Ted Talk on the 7 Ways to Improvise at work here. Embrace mistakes + errors. In jazz there is no such thing as a mistake, if you accidentally play the wrong key you figure out in the moment how to build on that - how to make it seamless. Convert an "error" into something new. Don't dwell on it or make it larger than it needs to be. Check out Natalie's essays on Inc.com here. Get better at accepting failure. Have a practice that is unrelated to your work, where you are constantly having to learn. What can you do to become more creative? Be curious. Creativity is grounded in curiosity. Creativity starts with asking better questions. Why? What if? How could we do it / put it into action? Rigor cannot be sustained without wonder.  NATALIE NIXON'S LIVE INSPIRED 7 1. What is the best book you’ve ever read? In Search of Satisfaction and A More Beautiful Question. 2. What is a characteristic or trait that you possessed as a child that you wish you still exhibited today? Audacity and day-dreamy-ness. 3. Your house is on fire, all living things and people are out. You have the opportunity to run in and grab one item. What would it be? An old black + white photograph of my parents in a photo booth. They're so beautiful and young and when I see that picture I just see the beginnings of me. 4. You are sitting on a bench overlooking a gorgeous beach. You have the opportunity to have a long conversation with anyone living or dead. Who would it be? Harriet Tubman, my grandmother who I was never able to meet, people who are long gone.  5. What is the best advice you've ever received? Keep on keeping on, persevere... from my dad. And also, "please and thank you" will set you apart one day. 7. It’s been said that all great people can have their lives summed up in one sentence. How do you want yours to read? She was brave before she was masterful. *** If you enjoyed today’s episode: Subscribe, rate & review on iTunes or wherever you get your podcasts. See you here next Thursday!

In 1939 the Supreme Court unanimously held that Congress could prohibit the possession of a sawed-off shotgun because that weapon had no reasonable relation to the preservation or efficiency of a “well regulated militia.”During the years when Warren Burger was our chief justice, from 1969 to 1986, no judge, federal or state, as far as I am aware, expressed any doubt as to the limited coverage of that amendment.  Chief Justice Burger publicly characterized the N.R.A. as perpetrating “one of the greatest pieces of fraud, I repeat the word fraud, on the American public by special interest groups that I have ever seen in my lifetime.”In 2008, the Supreme Court overturned Chief Justice Burger’s and others’ long-settled understanding of the Second Amendment’s limited reach by ruling, in District of Columbia v. Heller, that there was an individual right to bear arms. I was among the four dissenters. John Paul Stevens

Media Bias Uncovered[/caption] Fake News Birth, Media Bias, and Infotainment [caption id="" align="aligncenter" width="250"] American Nations: A History of the Eleven Rival Regional Cultures of North America[/caption] The birth of fake news has been a long time coming. We are the products of that which we seek. America is the land of diversity and very much locked into tribal mentality.  On the website the insider, there is a very goo article listing the 11 Nations of the United states. The 11 nations of America article is a very good read gauging Fake news media bias and division in the country go hand in hand. Find the article at http://www.businessinsider.com/the-11-nations-of-the-united-states-2015-7 . Fake news and the directed news information is not a new phenomenon. We started to segregate our personal information when Talk Radio was popularized in the 1980's and 1990's.  These platforms were the doctors of spin for a core audience of individuals listening to branded information. John Daly became one of the early pioneers regarding the current medium considered as infotainment with his television show Real TV which began in 1996. [caption id="attachment_1084" align="alignleft" width="200"] John Daly[/caption] Bio John Daly was taken from Informed Not Inflamed: John Daly is a journalist, news anchor, writer, author, spokesperson, and TV host.  He is best known as a pioneer in reality TV for hosting the ground-breaking show Real TV, the first all-video news magazine show. Daly’s skills as a host, a writer, and an interviewer have led to one thing: solid audience ratings.  He has consistently increased audience share on any TV show or newscast he anchored. Real TV, distributed by Paramount Domestic Television, achieved the highest first year ratings of any show.  Within two years, the all-video show was attracting more than 4 million viewers a night.  Real TV also brought Daly an international reputation since the show was seen in all English-speaking countries around the world. As the host of the Billionaire lifestyle, accurate information is vital. Accurate information is the most important factor for providing adults with tools to make a proper decision regarding their life and living situations. Without accurate media information as a nation, community or individual our ability to make sound decisions are sabotaged. Available on Amazon    or      or       or        Truth Hurts During our conversation, John Daly pointed out how we have reached a point of being comfortable or being correct seem to be far more important than being informed. Somehow we just want our opinions, be they correct or incorrect validated. in a nutshell, our population has resided to the entertainment platform for news versus fact-checking journalism. The evidence is clear too much information is too much. Information is so plentiful, where we cannot distinguish fact from fiction. The 21-century living construct is being connected to the entire world constantly. I see how we could be thought of as living in The Matrix where there is so much information presented as real, where nothing is concrete and tangible. Show me the Money The structure of media has morphed into a vehicle to make money. Television is a for-profit business. Television and media, in general, make profits by selling advertisements. If these entities cannot place eyeballs on the advertiser's products, they die. What would you do if you have a dwindling customer base, due to freedom of choice ( Netflix, Youtube, Hulu, Vice News), and the expansion of options for the consumer who is your audience? Reality TV did not help! The growing popularity of "Reality TV" fueled the fire.  It is synonymous to equating Greco-roman Olympic wrestling to The WWE. Where are the players look as though they are on the same field, but in reality, the scenario's are the exact opposite. We have accepted reality and Fake news as one big soup  at face value television The Fairness Doctrine Abandonment. (From Wikipedia) Much of this movement away from fact checking in media came about, in 1985,  the when it was believed the Fairness Doctrine "hurt the public interest and violated free speech rights guaranteed by the First Amendment." The Fairness Doctrine was a policy of the United States Federal Communications Commission (FCC), introduced in 1949, that required the holders of broadcast licenses both to present controversial issues of public importance and to do so in a manner that was — in the Commission's view — honest, equitable, and balanced. Origin In 1949, the Mayflower Doctrine, which had forbidden editorializing on the radio since 1941, was repealed.[5] This made way for the Fairness Doctrine.[5] The 1949 FCC Commission Report served as the foundation for the Fairness Doctrine. It established two forms of regulation on broadcasters: to provide adequate coverage of public issues, and to ensure that coverage fairly represented opposing views.[6] The second rule required broadcasters to provide reply time to issue-oriented citizens. Broadcasters could, therefore, trigger Fairness Doctrine complaints without editorializing. The commission required neither of the Fairness Doctrine's obligations before 1949. Until then broadcasters had to satisfy only general “public interest” standards of the Communications Act.[7][8] The doctrine remained a matter of general policy and was applied on a case-by-case basis until 1967, when certain provisions of the doctrine were incorporated into FCC regulations.[9] In a 1969 textbook case, the United States courts of appeals, in an opinion written by Warren Burger, directed the FCC to revoke Lamar Broadcasting's license for television station WLBT due to the station's segregationist politics and ongoing censorship of NBC network news coverage of the US civil rights movement.[10] Fairness Doctrine - Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fairness_Doctrine The Fairness Doctrine Fake News Definition ( From Wikipedia) Fake news is a type of hoax or deliberate spread of misinformation, be it via the traditional news media or via social media, with the intent to mislead in order to gain financially or politically. Fake news websites (also referred to as hoax news[1][2]) deliberately publish hoaxes, propaganda, and disinformation purporting to be real news—often using social media to drive web traffic and amplify their effect.[3][4][5] Unlike news satire, fake news websites seek to mislead rather than entertain readers, often for financial or political gain.[6][4] Such sites have promoted political falsehoods in Germany,[7][8] Indonesia and the Philippines,[9] Sweden,[10][11] Myanmar,[12] and the United States.[13][14][15] Many sites originate, or are promoted, from Russia,[3][13][16] Macedonia,[17][18] Romania,[19] and the United States.[20][21] Fake news - Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fake_news   InfoTainment Definition: in·fo·tain·ment ˌinfōˈtānmənt/ noun  1. broadcast material that is intended both to entertain and to inform.   Here is what you can do to educate yourself.
