Library Media Coverup—Fake News:
Stories by Edgar County Watchdogs:
- Twenty six: "Category: Atlanta Public Library District"
Stories by American Library Association:
- None
Stories by Library Journal:
- None
26-0-0. Library media provide no stories on the topic. None. They do not want people to know local libraries may not be the angels people think they are. In this case, library media equals fake news for failing to report on fraud, etc.
Is your local library getting away with anything? Is your media hiding anything?
