I wonder if modern media — with their incentive to run negative stories — skew perceptions such that ever-more folks think that it's strategically better to cheat, even if that's not actually true.
Old Media is serving itself, and not the people. This is a big issue. Papers have very little accountability when it comes to reporting the truth in a way that fits a narrative. They often report the correct facts, but they don't report them in a 'correct way'. Or the most useful way for the most amount of people.
