This is a general warning to most people, always focus on the accuracy rather than the advocacy part.
Don’t read or share an article just because it aligns with your world view.
News organizations in general are the “middle man” between you and events happening in the world.
Don’t let the middle man shape your view on reality, focus on accuracy and hopefully you will get a balanced world view.
I mean, yes, but no. I hate (and I mean really, really hate) to admit it, but the success of all the right-wing propaganda as of late has made it undeniable that perception is very capable of creating reality.
Inventing Reality by Michael Parenti covers this topic quite well. (Or so I am told I have not gotten around to reading it yet)
