> more than one opinion on the subject.
In my experience, the difference between publications isn't so much in the opinions they express, but in which stories they choose to cover. Go to reason.com for stories of government abuse of power, and motherjones.com for corporate abuses. They can cover their stories accurately, but simply by choosing which they cover, they will paint a very different picture of reality.
- bArray 7y agoFor sure - but this is precisely the reason we should all reach for a wide variety of sources. Your typical left-wing news source might choose not to publish a story critical of left-wing politics for example, whereas Breitbart would likely jump on the opportunity. Breitbart on the other hand might choose not to be critical of right-wing political stories. As my parents once told me as a child, the truth is often somewhere in the middle.
