Depends on what outlet you were watching to determine what the "subjective facts" are. "Facts" were presented that the moon landing was faked, 9-11 was a government conspiracy, the earth is flat, and climate change is a hoax/scientific fact.

There are no Cronkites anymore--he literally changed world history when he told the American public on TV that the US was in a "stalemate" and the Viet Nam War was not winnable. We listened--because we knew he was not in it for the ratings. That is in no-way the case today.

Who is there now?

We cannot have an honest debate if we cannot agree on the facts. Eyes on the screen=revenue.
That which true is factual. That which is not true but which one asserts is true, is not factual. It is a falsehood, no matter how much you believe otherwise. Facts are facts, no matter how much you deny them, no matter how much your faith or politicians tell you otherwise, no matter how inconvenient or upsetting they may be. The facts don't care whether we agree on them or not. The facts are truth! Everything else is fantasy, opinions, falsehoods, lies.
