I’ve said on here before that I used to be a journalist. This guy gets it. There is SO much you can do to push your narrative, if you want to, beyond just simply stating it as truth in the body of an article. He’s so right to point out the seemingly small things like choice of photos, and, especially now in an era where most people just read the headline and share the link on Twitter, the choice of terminology in the headline. I never wanted to push a narrative, but I’d say about 3/4 of my colleagues did, and would use these somewhat more subconscious techniques to drive a point home.
