News is - and always has been - unreliable. Complex topics condensed to digestible, engaging narratives. Biases both overt and subconscious always creep in, even if it’s a subtle choice of words. Important data, context, and facts are always missed. Opinions find their way in and op-eds further confuse issues.
There is no single source of news that can be trusted and even if you dig deep you can never know how much you really know, how much you really missed, or how compromised you’ve been by all the subtle biases in writing style and coverage.
Take everything you read anywhere with copious amounts of salt and suspicion.
Hmm I don’t believe you
Amazing username or best username?
Why not both?
But thank you
