I don't.
It's riven with liars,charlatans and peddlers of false truths.
If a reporter from CNN/NYT came to my door tonight I'd set the dogs on them,just after throwing a bucket of sloppy horse manure over them.
Here is one example for you from the thread about the lying Der Spiegel writer:
I cannot tell from the excerpt who heard that conversation and how we know it is a lie. It is all hearsay -somebody heard McCabe say something. Who was that? Now if McCabe comes out and refutes the NYT story, I would tend to believe him. But he hasn't so all we have is a "he said / she said" sort of a standoff, which is not a demonstrated lie. I am sure Mueller knows if it is a lie. It is interesting that he came out and refuted the BuzzFeed piece recently. There are several fact-checking orgs checking and reporting on lies in the press. They rarely report on a clear lie in the NYT, but catch CNN stretching the truth. My impression is that most of the hate for the NYT, CNN, or Fox is not so much the news but the opinion pieces, which aren't news at all. But you can fault the NYT for the volume of unflattering news about Trump. That is pretty high.
They are no longer journalists but opinionists. I’m so tired of no fact checking whatsoever. Every time I hear the words “reliable source” I roll my eyes.
I took many journalism classes in college during the 70s and my professors would be rolling in their graves to see what has happened to journalism now. We were taught to despise the kind of biased and manipulating “news” we get today. It was supposed to just be facts — who, what, where, when, and how.....
I really wonder what are the current journalism professors telling their students about this NOT
being real journalism anymore? Do these professors justify it, ignore it, or are they as outraged as the rest of us?
The left-wing social media warriors were advocating punching these kids in the face.
A female Saturday Night Live writer even promised to " blow " anyone who did so.
A bucket of horse sh!te is small beer in comparison.
Again, your violence is not OK b/c others advocate it (assuming your allegations are true).

It gets worse and worse. Disney was forced to apologize for this.
Shows Covington kids being thrown into a wood chipper. Morrison later deleted the tweet and gave a half assed apology. Saying he hadn't the "time" to look into what really happened.
I must admit I get a bit of pleasure seeing this stuff. It is inappropriate for sure but we should never let this hatred loose on our culture. It must be contained and eliminated so that it does not metastasize. Maybe not with wood chippers but with education.
It makes a difference because the poster was incorrect.
