Some media analysts have warned that nothing is checked in the news of today. The news is written and a new one is sought, says a journalist. Another colleague has opined, on condition that his identity is not revealed: we must recognize that it was a news. If it had been proven, there would have been no news.
Media analysts express concern over the reliability of contemporary news reporting, suggesting that much of it remains unchecked and unverified. According to a journalist's observation, the news cycle revolves around the constant pursuit of new stories, often at the expense of thorough fact-checking. This creates an environment where sensationalism can overshadow accuracy.
Moreover, an anonymous colleague emphasizes the importance of verification, stating that if a story were definitively substantiated, it would be less likely to be considered newsworthy in its current sensational form. These reflections highlight the challenges facing modern journalism, as outlined in Michael Crichton's book "Next."
