RE: Election Mathematics

I think journalism hasn't been so great for a while now, as it is all about clicks. Clicks drive advertising revenue, which is the only way they can survive - and because of the way we are attracted to drama and celebrity, there is no reason to do much research to feed us.

Is that all journalism? Generalisation are usually wrong. What is the alternative? 'Citizen journalists' have a bias too and lack the resources to properly investigate some stories. You can't do everything from a basement lair :) You have to be selective in what news sources you trust and trust has to be earned.
