It's true, the media is biased.  It's almost unavoidable.   If reporters report things as they see them, then they will inevitably report through the lens of their own bias.  

 

With that in mind, I think it's very important that you not shut out channels that don't reflect your own bias.   I think you need to sample from all points of view and make up your mind from that.   I know it's more comfortable to just reinforce your own views and not disturb your own opinions with inconvenient facts.   That's why most of us take up a position and search out facts to support it.   Rich people search for reasons why they should get a tax cut.  Poor people search for reasons why rich people should pay higher taxes.   So everyone tends to exist in their own bubble.   That's why people get madder and madder about politics.  They are told one thing and when the other thing happens, they don't understand why.  

 

I think we need to recognize, the truth is elusive.
