Lie-Able Sources Podcast: A Signal of the Media Diminishing and White House Correspondents Are Struggling

Your source to mainline mainstream media misdeeds and malarkey. 

After one week, the scandal of the year has already dissipated. Last week, the press industry was falling over themselves to hype and churn the story of The Atlantic’s Jeffrey Goldberg being included in the famed Defense Department Signal message thread during the Houthi attack. It was said to be the act that would render the administration and ruin careers.

By the weekend, the story drifted off like a kite with its string cut, and the reasons are evident. The fact is the facts were not in support of the hysteria, and the new mindset in the Trump 2.0 era is to slam these sham reports with accurate details and move on, as the press is left interviewing vapor.

We use this example to further explore the massive shift away from the former titans of the media landscape and look at how the general public is developing deeper skepticism as they move towards alternative news sources. In related fashion, we then check on the White House Correspondents Association, which is having a tough week as the annual WHCA Nerd Prom approaches this month.

Now, crack one open and savor some mainstream media malpractice and misinformation.
