Weren't the newspaper polls misinforming regarding the Brexit result? Perhaps their interest in Brexit is contrary to yours.
And haven't news organizations been known to exaggerate/mischaracterize small peaceful protests as large scale riots? I would think simply looking up "Venice riots" on YouTube and filtering for the last week or month would provide you the information you'd need rather than watching a talking head read a teleprompter while the same short video clip plays on repeat.
- bshimmin 10y agoWell, I suppose if you believe that the news is all inherently false, biased, and generally uninformative, then it probably isn't going to be a good choice for you. (Incidentally, the Brexit polls were somewhat wrong, but they were not conducted by the newspapers.)
- christop 10y agoBut presumably you wouldn't even know to search YouTube for "Venice riots" if you hadn't been consuming any news?
