But with great power comes great responsibility — and it's questionable whether today's media members recognize that there's a moral imperative for them to report the truth, and in instances where errors are made, to correct those mistakes.

Newsmax host Marc Lotter weighs in on the state of today's media. ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/bold-and-blunt-467189/episodes/the-power-of-today-s-media/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/bold-and-blunt-467189/the-power-of-today-s-media.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
