Hi Dave, just a couple of questions. Considering you’re old enough to remember the days of pre-Internet news, do you believe society is better off having such access to such array of news topics just by clicking a few times?
Additionally, I believe that the “news” has always been biased and particular media conglomerates have always used media as a way of influencing the masses. Now it’s simply consumed more widely; more easily and more tailored for us to consume.
Question: firstly, do you agree with that statement? Do you think that “misinformation” is more prevalent than before? If so, is it simply because we had more news to consume or it’s been done purposefully?
