The way I see it, when everybody consumes the same media everybody starts to have the same thoughts. Which isn't a bad thing, per se, but it's the sort of thing that leads to political polarization and close-mindedness. Groups of people make better decisions when they have different ideas and can come up with better solutions for problems. Strong democracies and economies are made by independent individuals, not identical crowds of people.
