I think the only reasonable tack for journalists to take is to start writing headlines that say, "Trump lies about X". It lacks the decorum that most respectable publications would prefer, but these are not normal times and normal solutions aren't going to get us anywhere. If CNN, NYT, and NPR all started just routinely beginning stories with, "Today the administration lied about such-and-such," he would implode in a heartbeat. It's not a qualitative judgement if it's true, so call a liar a liar already. The naked truth might just liberate a bunch of other journalists from their need to be "balanced."
