Everyone likes being agreed with. It makes us feel good to have our beliefs validated. And this definitely extends to the news. But with the world becoming more and more polarized, especially as it pertains to politics, our media has become fragmented in kind. Stories often only cover topics from a single perspective. There's far too much subjectivity in journalism now, and it doesn't seem to be letting up. But what if we could change this? What if people are open to change? It's a cyclical problem that's self-perpetuating, but the sooner we can re-evaluate what we expect from media, the sooner we can free ourselves from the pre-canned opinions and move back to critical thinking.
