    If all news are corrupted, how are you able to discern between what is real and what is fake?

    Its not necessarily about corruption, but every media (and every person) has their bias. Thats why we need critical thinking.

      I agree wholeheartedly with that. We all have to be aware of our own and every other entities bias. The easiest example of how important it is; is with racism in technology. Where technology isn’t made for for example afroamericans because the team who developed the technology didn’t have a diverse enough team to discover that their tech is actually formed for mostly white people, even though if the team had been given the choice would have rectefied it. But because of diversity wasn’t aware. Which also happens with news too.

        You’ve said the same things about the other side of stories you’re sharing on here.

            Thats subjective. If they really are so terrible, you should be able to find some objective arguments to support that claim.

              I don’t believe there are objective arguments to give. But we can agree to disagree.
