The problem is with the profit motive. Unfortunately many will pay money for media that publishes that which is not the truth.

What would be really useful is a clearing house for truth, kind of like snopes is, to establish truth from all the BS that gets put out there.

Because it enhances a particulr political point of view? Or, maybe, because many don't seem able to discern what's true or not for themselves?
