News Sources.

[Tonka]

The funny thing is, the lefty agenda, seems largely accidental. Knowing a lot of journalists, I find most in of them working in broadcast (not print) aren't consciously pushing any agenda. They tend to all have a similar standpoint, and just think they are right. Everyone around them has similar views, and they just think it's the normal view. Of course there are a lot of exceptions, but the effect of the slightly left of centre people writing all the news can be quite powerful.

It's good to keep an eye on multiple differing news sources. I find the best way to get the accurate story is to listen to at least two sources you know have an opposite bias, and then form a news article in your own mind that sits in the middle.

The danger is that humans have a tendency to have view point, and then seek out the news they agree with them. Then they only listen to that source of news and consider that to be the truth.

I think it was Sun Tsu that said: "Know your enemy and know yourself, even if it means sometimes watching X Factor"
