A Free Country Requires a Free and Responsible Press
Why is my viewpoint never given equal representation in the mainstream media?
These days, consuming quality news is as difficult as finding something healthy to eat. You have to disregard the restaurants with familiar names in convenient locations. Instead, you have to do a little searching. The problem is that it’s easy to make bad choices when you’re hungry.
It’s like the difference between eating a scoop of sugar versus a scoop of protein. One will give you a sugar rush followed by a headache, the other will give you enough energy to do a day’s worth of work.
Everyone says the US has a high-sugar diet. It tastes great, but it’s killing us. We don’t seem to realize that bad reporting is as detrimental to our psyche as a bad diet is to our health
I am interested in fact-based rational thinking. Unfortunately, I find that this perspective is infrequently represented in the mainstream media. I find it frustrating that my viewpoint is not afforded equal representation. If I want to see a reflection of what I’m thinking in print I have to write it myself.
