Do You Get Your Information From the Media......Or Your Opinions?

This is a very insightful post. It's so hard to tell what is genuine news and what is subtly persuading you to a particular way of thinking.
I personally try to be objective and question the context of statistics that are stated as "proof" but even then I still find myself getting swept along by the media's opinion manipulation.
