Knowledge is power and the mass media is a distributor of knowledge, but right now it seems they are mishandling it big time.

I think there needs to be a reform with how the mass media prioritize their stories. Replace all the unimportant politics, celebrity, and sports news on the front page with big science and technology articles (the politics, celebrity, and sports articles would go into their respective news section without covering up the front page).

That way more ppl would be exposed to the important advances in science and technology that could move society forward (right now nobody knows what Thorium is, or even fusion), and therefore more support would be placed on those technologies/science, which might speed up progress towards some sort of commercialization/mass production of those technologies. [big long sentence but watever its the internet]
