I can trust professional journalists to:
report unbiased news
do all the fact-checking for me
decide which news should be reported

they were there, so they know

If a story turns out to be fake...
it is no big deal
the main point is you figured out it's FAKE!
people can be hurt and the writer could be sued for slander
it's all in fun, no one gets hurt

If a news story is re-posted on social media by an important/ well-known person:
I can trust the story
it doesn't matter; they are human too and prone to bias
it is true
Their take on the story is the correct one
