During the 2023 White House Correspondents’ Dinner in Washington, President Joe Biden declared that “a poison is running through our democracy and parts of the extreme press. Truth buried by lies and lies living an honest truth.” Yet what is the “extreme press” and what is this alleged “poison” running through the American system? The United States is having a fundamental debate on truth, and on whether voices should be allowed to challenge established narratives.
Tucker Carlson struck a chord in a video published on Twitter after he left Fox News. In it, he raises a new debate for the news outlets of the world, questioning whether the stories of choice actually matter for the public, and questioning even more deeply why the stories that matter are not being discussed.
