    Personally I think the biggest issue beyond the obvious “this sure will get us a lot of views/clicks” is that some outlets try to maintain the perception of “balance”

    “Well we CAN’T call them deranged maniacs hell-bent on destroying democracy, or people will say we’re biased!”

    “but sir, they ARE deranged maniacs hell-bent on destroying democracy”

    “yes, but if we TELL people that, they’ll decide we’re biased”
