Where to get your news

Not sure where this best fits, but the recent discussions here had me looking deeper into how I communicate.  Thought this was an excellent overview, and I'm going to try and be better.

"You know you’re in the presence of a thought-provoking argument and not a troll when you don’t flinch, and instantly parry as if being lanced. Instead, you reflect."


 
I'm not sure where else to put this, but it's really important we start to understand what's going on with social and mass media as it relates to propaganda:



 
More and more are starting to see that Fox News is propaganda:

Fox News Analyst Quits, Calling Network a ‘Propaganda Machine’

“In my view, Fox has degenerated from providing a legitimate and much-needed outlet for conservative voices to a mere propaganda machine for a destructive and ethically ruinous administration,” Colonel Peters wrote in his message, a copy of which was obtained by The New York Times.

“Over my decade with Fox, I long was proud of the association,” he added. “Now I am ashamed.”

Without citing them by name, Colonel Peters, 65, wrote that Fox News’s prime-time anchors “dismiss facts and empirical reality to launch profoundly dishonest assaults on the F.B.I., the Justice Department, the courts, the intelligence community (in which I served) and, not least, a model public servant and genuine war hero such as Robert Mueller.”

And yet humanity isn't crashing down around you...

Tucker is speaking to a very specific audience to try and keep eyes glued to the screen and generate outrage. The fact these same people decry identity/race-based politics is nothing short of ridiculous doublespeak. He's doing the same thing, he's just doing it with white people.
