Perhaps they never where, We also had William Randoph Hearst and his splendid little war in 1898. But we also had real journalists that reported Watergate, Bernstein and Woodward. But all we get is CNN and idiots like Woppie Goldberg

FOX is the least of your problems. CNN and MSNBC let's get Trump despite the facts. Biden got how much from China? Nevermind.

I am playing the devils advocate. The Gulf of Tonkin incident. Or flash forward, Sadam had WMD's and...its all bullshit.

Today's "journalists" are not unlike those Confederate sympathizers Abraham Lincoln had to deal with. He had to write an executive order to stop their lies and misinformation.

Executive Order—Arrest and Imprisonment of Irresponsible Newspaper Reporters and Editors​

May 18, 1864

Major-General John A. Dix,
Commanding at New York:
Whereas there has been wickedly and traitorously printed and published this morning in the New York World and New York Journal of Commerce, newspapers printed and published in the city of New York, a false and spurious proclamation purporting to be signed by the President and to be countersigned by the Secretary of State, which publication is of a treasonable nature, designed to give aid and comfort to the enemies of the United States and to the rebels now at war against the Government and their aiders and abettors, you are therefore hereby commanded forthwith to arrest and imprison in any fort or military prison in your command the editors, proprietors, and publishers of the aforesaid newspapers, and all such persons as, after public notice has been given of the falsehood of said publication, print and publish the same with intent to give aid and comfort to the enemy; and you will hold the persons so arrested in close custody until they can be brought to trial before a military commission for their offense. You will also take possession by military force of the printing establishments of the New York World and Journal of Commerce, and hold the same until further orders, and prohibit any further publication therefrom.
A. LINCOLN.
