Done with mainstream media?

Me too, one of the surprising results of this election cycle is my personal realization that every mainstream media source is absolute crap.   If you clicked this link you are probably feel similar to me and don't know what to do about it. Well, to stop watching and listening is a good start but somehow that doesn't fell like enough.  I feel like the media needs a serious reality check, but as with the government it seems like there is no oversight in terms of reliability and credibility.  A thought crossed my mind today of sitting media pundits down in front of america and calling them on there bull with videos and facts supporting how they deceive the people, changing the context of stories and picking and choosing what they deem as news. But then i realized, hey, where would this interview took place, CBS, NBC, CNN, FOX? no way, obviously that wouldn't work. If an interview or a series of interviews were possible it would only be on the inter nets. Maybe we could get the owners of the news corporations to sit down to be grilled on everything. doubtful but one can always dream.

This post is purely to generate discussion on the topic of the mainstream media in our culture and what we (ordinary citizens), can do to reverse these trends.
