    Videos are now basically have the same weights as words…

    We live in a post-truth world now.

    It’s interesting that you start with a bold statement that is IMHO correct, namely that namely what was once taken as unquestionable truth now isn’t, but also it’s not new, just yet another media, but still conclude that it’s different.

    Arguably we were already in a post-truth World, always have been, it only extends to a medium we considered too costly to fake until now. The principle is still the same.
