news bubble thank you for that. The problem with modern society is that no one checks the news media of opposing viewpoints, comparing them and building their own conclusions.
I would argue for the importance of highly coordinated news monopolies in this. Many people with minimal civics education think they're getting a wide variety of news sources instead of the same three regurgitated from the same oligarchs.
I WISH I could get away from Right Wing "news." If I could ignore their garbage viewpoint, it would be great.
But the reality is one side is much louder than the other.
