Liberals, conservatives live in their own media bubbles - Daniel Alcorta 4th

pew-graphic-news-sources.png    Among the roughly 20 percent of the American public that comprises the most ardent liberals and conservatives, there is almost no agreement on which news sources are trustworthy, a major report on political polarization from the Pew Research Journalism Project finds.
The year-long study looked at how people get their political information from the news media, social media and friends and family.There were several news outlets liberals cited as their main source of news. Fifteen percent of those respondents said they relied mostly on CNN for news; 13 percent chose NPR; 12 percent said MSNBC; and 10 percent picked the New York Times.Conservatives, however, have a far more clear cut preference: nearly half of respondents, 47 percent, rely on Fox News as their main source of information about government and politics. 
THese news outlets create a bias few on these political matters and opinions just to sway their viewers. This creates intelligent arguments between the people of our nation. It is the job of the news broadcasters to bring us the news and lay it all on the table. To let the people make their own informed decision

  1. This has been going on for years. Politicians who have the power and money are ones who can control the way information is delivered.

  2. The fact that the divided parties receive their information from separate sources goes to show the division rampant in the USA today. Hopefully we can take action to become more unified in our approach to gathering information so it won't be skewed one way or another.

  3. This is very interesting and important when it comes to the U.S. because it impacts everyone in a way.
