It's worse. We are reverting back to the age of lügenpresse and hearsay comes in short-form video formats.
Many people simply do not care (or are even aware) if a source is trusted if the message aligns with their own bias or the message is presented as a new "fact". Trust is irrelevant, unfortunately.
How is that different to before the 1800?
