This story about Jussie Smollett too many holes
from the beginning. If we had an unbiased media, the fake story would have been
reported as is from the start. However, they media decided to run the story as
truth after the fake story was more researched, (from the start of the incident
most news sources reported on it did not even use the word “allegedly” when
reporting on the attack) without even trying to uncover the truth. In this
article, I agree with what President Trump about the bias that is happening in the news media, and usually I do not agree
with him very often. Also, it said, “the story was too good to be true. So no
one care whether it was or not”. Journalists are supposed to be nonpartisan in
their reporting, and are supposed to further investigate before reporting on
something that they pass out as facts. Furthermore, it is obvious that the
media is bias. Journalist and news sources need to stick to reporting facts and
let people come up with their own conclusions, also they should stop tailoring
news to fit their own agendas or narratives - this goes for both sides. The most
disturbing part is the amount of Hollywood celebrities and politicians that
automatically jumped on the #JusticeforJussie bandwagon without bothering
to look at the unraveling evidence that this was a hoax. Sadly, the real
tragedy is that if people start doubting real victims of hate crimes because of
this embarrassing incident.
