I've been following media for a long time and I have come to the conclusion that especially reporters with an atheistic worldview (not all) often write news having to do with the Bible, giving a false idea of the Bible as if it would condone all kinds of perversions and wrongdoings. The reporter's motive to write this type of article comes from the desire to twist things and to hit and badmouth Christians and the teachings of the Bible. By this, I don't mean to say all news is pointless, of course, there are meaningful news also, but the number of pointless news is increasing all the time. Because there are many reporters out there using the media to give a totally false impression of the Bible, I will bring forth the true nature of the Bible, which is one and the same with the nature of God.

Actually the days of honestly reporting just the news are long gone. The media in all countries -- Western, Islamic, or Communist -- have simply become PROPAGANDA MACHINES. As to anything pertaining to the Bible, Christ, or Christianity, all those topics are irrelevant for the media networks. They now specialize in sensationalism or FAKE NEWS. So yes, from a Christian perspective, the news is indeed pointless, and Christians should generally ignore the media (other than a few conservative sources).

Lol we don't call them the Fake News Media for nothing.

I wouldn't get too worried about it. The Fake News Media are all pretty much dying right in front of our eyes; massive lay-offs, massive programming cuts, their companies are totally failing!
