Lemmy has links to a variety of news sources, some more credible than others. I imagine there are people who link credible news sources on social media as well?
I’d say they’re equally meh due to not showing the whole picture. TV kinda says what feds allow 'em to, and antisocial media gives an easy way to filter only the news strengthening your beliefs in whatever (I.e. radicalization). But with the latter one can at least consciously add more perspectives [unless it’s Facebook, and zuckwomble decides to conduct one of his mood control experiments or something]
Not that either are good but 🤢
Arent’t we using one at the moment?

TV being the lesser evil

msm is still worst thought, because the tradional network ones are under the control of conservatives. not by much.
