I have gone to reading the news
Dec 12 2019 06:32AM more by KaiserSoce
Tags: Current Events

I used to watch the news religiously... but realized I was being indoctrinated and was beginning to rationalize and accept ideas I know are wrong.

The need TV news has almost become obsolete. I watch local news for about an hour each morning.

Network and cable news has become all about opinion.

So now... throughout the day, I’ll read news online and play a little game I call, “What’s the bias?” I try to see if I can spot if they are trying to get me to look at something a particular way.

How much information am I receiving ... and how much opinion about the information am I receiving?

I have found many of the descriptive words being used in articles subtlety reveal an influencing bias.

Anyway... what news sources do you like to read?

Sam have you ever heard Don Lemon or Chris Cumuo talk about Trump.

Both sides get pretty nasty.

It strikes more of a nerve when it the other side. We hear our side do it and say, “Well, it’s true.”

“Anyone who still thinks Trump did nothing wrong is 'mental'” - Don Lemon

Happiness is one burring there head in the sand, or some where else.

Newspapers, the first two paragraphs and the last two are all one needs the read.

Funny how one can read most of the news here. But you'll have to find the weather somewhere else.

Now back to infowars....

Yeah it's on all sides. All sources have bias, like OP said it is helpful to take that into account as you watch or read.

I am amazed how common it is for Fox or CNN to run a lead story that is an analysis or opinion, or worse yet, a story about their own reporter... media reporting on themselves. If there is no news, make some up.

Bottom line is drama, anger, division, hate all sell ads and generate clicks and page views. It's a business and a nasty one. That's why CNN and Trump secretly love each other... they are on the same team really.

I listen to or watch anything with critical ears and eyes. Even reports that seems to give just facts I treat with skepticism because I always like to ask, "What are they not telling me?" or "What am I missing?" Even what they report in New York Times Science section has a selection bias due to the political agenda of that newspaper. You just can't trust anyone completely anymore.

My favorite is the web site RealClearPolitics which publishes stuff from both ends of the spectrum. And both ends can be kind of crazy. It also shows polls and frequently has articles which are historical in nature and nothing to do with politics.

If you don’t like these biased articles, stick to reading about baseball. Much easier on the nerves.

Watching the news is a loser, doesnt matter which channel unless maybe you're that C-Span junkie.

Although, I'd like to see Celebrity Death Match between Faggity and Madcow.

WSJ & NYT and IBD before they removed the editorial content, be a skeptic and consider the unintended consequences. Oh yeah, almost forgot the cover of Time magazine's person of the year. That tells me what latest fad already peaked and is heading south. Apparently overhyped ignorant Aspergers sufferers spewing climate change dystopia will be trending down.

My 2 cents on OP's question
