Media companies in USA are lacking topics to cover truthfully. All issues worth covering are partisan, and the Media is on one side of it. Because of this American media is losing legitimacy. People have stopped listening to the boy who cried wolf. People are wondering why we need to pay for newspapers, and cable news when Youtube news channels are free and more predictive, accurate, and useful.

This is where the Theranos incident comes in. It is a great story that proves that the old media still works and is objective. It helps the media regain its legitimacy which they can later use to lie to us.
