It was a completely trivial part of the movie that took up perhaps 3 minutes of the plot, which is why I didn’t feel the need to cover the information up with a cryptic description and link elsewhere. Still, I understand the concern and apologize for having not warned readers.
Right, deciding what’s credible and what’s junk is a human problem that comes with its own set of biases. There’s no easy solution here.
I’m not going to comment on the editorial quality of conservative publications, but it raises interesting questions about how Facebook can ever "objectively" handle news. If they set a certain bar for what’s reputable (New York Times, CNN, Washington Post) that will naturally exclude stories from right-wing outlets even when those stories are being linked to and discussed far more prevalently.
Even then, the editorial values that go into deciding which outlet makes a story reputable are inherently bias, and come with all the thorny complications of nearly half the American public distrusting mainstream media sources and favoring more niche, opinionated outlets, no matter how driven by confirmation bias that may be.
I can’t recommend it enough. I understand why people were wary at first; episodic anything can come off as a cash grab. But it really is the most finely tuned and elaborate Hitman game I’ve ever played. If you like messing around with complex systems and collecting achievements that actually feel worth the effort, this game delivers.
