Falsifying stories

Yes and no. I don't think it's as big of a problem as some people make it out to be. I think it most certainly can become a problem though with the way media and journalism ethics is spiraling downward. I think the real problem is that the media is not giving us true news. I think they just present stories they know will attract viewers rather than broadcast serious issues that public could potentially not know anything about. I feel the biggest problem is that only a small number of people choose what we know, see and hear. Falsifying news does not seem like a widespread problem with our media right now, but the way media has been going I wouldn't be surprised if it did become a problem. To me, reliable journalism has been on a decline in the last decade.
