As you say, the media promotes the slant of the situation that agrees with their perspective. In Australia, we have the same thing - certain media outlets are loved by the left, while others are preferred by the right (more media is left than right here, but I don't think that's uncommon).<br /><br />My biggest issue with all media is that it isn't unbiased any more. They are supposed to give us the facts and let us make our own decisions in line with our interpretation, beliefs, values etc. Instead they want to influence us to their way of thinking - and heaven forbid you disagree (regardless of side).<br /><br />Sorry about the long post, but it really saddens me that this is the situation the world is in now.AJ Blythehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04529233142099749005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4333947024343776341.post-60403835761320685322019-10-30T10:26:46.030-06:002019-10-30T10:26:46.030-06:00In order to gather as many points of view as possi...In order to gather as many points of view as possible, and being a political junkie of the worst kind, I watch MSNBC, CNN, and FOX, and I also read as many other sources as I can on politically charged subjects. My conclusion is that everyone lies for viewers and subscribers, unbiased journalism is dead, and most people watch or read the sites/channels that parrot their own beliefs. It's a sad commentary on the state of the nation. Try the website Allsides.com -- It's fascinating to see the biases side-by-side.Patricia Stolteyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17192369425956406122noreply@blogger.com
