BROKEN NEWS
Beware the media!
Narrative managers
Quietly pull the strings;
Consumers their puppets.
You wish to eat poison?
If so then please do so
But if not I suggest
You switch the damned thing off!

Staying informed definitely requires an objective source (if we can find one) and clear vision.

I think finding anyone who is truly objective is very hard. Mostly we find it is easier to find folk whose subjectivity is in live with our own 🙂

Yes, very true. There are a few news sources around that report from many points of view. Still, I guess we naturally tend to pay most attention to the point of view that aligns with our own. But I’ve found it helpful to listen to the other side. Unless it’s the trumpian side… Can’t tolerate that. 🤪

Do we believe them or we believe the one who reflects our views? Nice advice, a sound one.
