Freedom of the Press is Abused

The problem is not with the concept of Freedom of the Press but the laziness of the media that is constantly quoting another story without verifying the veracity of the story. What this means is one reporter writes something and the rest of the media quotes it. Errors are NOT mistakes but are efforts to increase their circulation or viewership by beating the competition. ALL media does the same thing including cable news networks. When they do they show themselves as unprofessional and not to be trusted..
