- tsimionescu 4y agoI'm not claiming all news sources are equally trustworthy - obviously the NYT is a better news source than Fox, and both are better than "my primary school friend of Facebook". My point was that we all have blindspots when the news sources we have chosen to trust are feeding us false information. Also, the problem isn't that people don't choose a news source to trust, it is that they choose a bad news source to trust, and this can happen for very different reasons.
