I think it's time for the people and the press, in particular, to be more vigilant about not giving equal weight to lies as they give the truth.
There are a terrible lot of lies going about the world, and the worst of it is that half of them are true.
The American public is sick and tired of being lied to.
People need good lies. There are too many bad ones.
The elite media has been caught in so many lies because of false statements that its whole reputation has eroded, their circulation is down, and their profits are down.

In the old days, the media is who held people accountable when they lied in politics. That isn't happening anymore.

The lies the government and media tell are amplifications of the lies we tell ourselves. To stop being conned, stop conning yourself.
The media lies to us all the time, and we always believe the media.
