Mainstream Media Trust Deficit, Samsung Galaxy Note 7 Errors
The hosts discuss the declining trustworthiness of mainstream media, which polls show is below 20%. They cite specific reporting errors by Amy Goodman on Democracy Now!, such as misidentifying the owner of the Taj Mahal casino and confusing the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 with the Galaxy S7. They argue that even "alternative" outlets like Democracy Now! are failing in basic accuracy.
