False equivalence between Twitter news and mainstream news. Mainstream news has to verify their sources and have a reputation to protect. They retract stories that turn out to be false. As you saw with Dominion, mainstream news has money to protect from slander lawsuits too. It’s not perfect and there is certainly bias, but on Twitter there are no guardrails for misinformation besides community notes.

Well this is just a wildly wrong claim. The mainstream news could tell you that the Sasquatch is real and is behind Russiagate and people would believe it and not give a shit when both are found to be false. Where is Peng Shaui, the Uighur genocide, the invasion of Ukraine was “unprovoked”, Israel has a right to defend itself, Hamas raped women, Hamas beheaded babies… These are all things that have been proven wrong and the vast majority of people still believe them. The MSM is just propaganda. It doesn’t even have community notes. There’s no slander laws between states.
I prefer that than someone making my decisions for me and censoring.
Misinformation is already all over the mainstream news so…
