“Truly, mainstream #media is the great Mugger of Reality. Even when its individual stories are rock solid, it promotes a deeply false Big Picture of the world. And unless you have the intellectual steel to constantly remind yourself, ‘This is a horribly misleading perspective,’ consuming media tends to make you believe this deeply false Big Picture.”
@tripu Good article. It’s been a long time since I agreed with a conservative. It’s interesting that he and I both agree that media is a big part of the problem. Perhaps our shared hypothesis is correct, and the Right and the Left would find even more common ground without the for-profit news media getting in the way.
