You have to be pretty naïve to think everyone takes the time to get good information. Murdoch has built an empire on the exact opposite of this premise. He seems to be doing ok out of it.
Yeah I’m sorry but if you’re getting your media from Murdoch then that’s on you. The fact that him and his publications are essentially propaganda for the conservative party is public knowledge. If you haven’t absorbed that from the ether then you’re a particularly unaware person.
That is precisely my point. There are plenty who do not have that understanding. Old people especially do not have a clue about alternative media sources. The Tory premise is to rely on ignorance. This is why they tell so many lies in PMQs.
British media was something that the world relied on for an honest opinion with honest facts. Not everyone has caught onto the corrupt that is in it presently. To stand and say well they should know better is just plain crass. We need media reform, but until we get it then we will have people who are swayed by fake news.

That’s on people who “don’t have time”.
When a country is pushing people to work multiple jobs to make ends ofc they do not have time. What a selfish, moronic thing to state.
No one is pushing anyone to do anything.
The British public have had it so easy for so long, that they have become very passive.
Well, that’s definitely true.
