A fascinating exchange in
which French presidential candidate Marine Le Pen informs a reporter
that no one trusts the media highlights how incredibly disconnected from
reality the establishment press really is.
The
reporter tells Le Pen her advice that people “turn away from the
traditional media, (and) go and find news on the Internet” is
“dangerous”.
Le Pen looks bemused, asking, “why?”
The reporter responds by stating, “On
the Internet, you can find conspiracy theories, all types of things,
it’s not necessarily verified information.”
“Don’t
you think that the traditional media have conspiracy theories?” replied
Le Pen, adding, “I’ve read a ton of things about Russia intervening in
the presidential campaign and other things like that – I mean there is
at least as much fake news in the traditional media as on the Internet!”
