Television Creates Many Of Human Beings Beliefs & Lack of Critical Thinking.

Please don't let it clear the day we make insinuations and base things off of the little bit of information we know of people our celebrities are there in the limelight through television and we make a decision on if they were a great person without even seeking information or doing the work to find out more. Now this isn't true

I know you were talking about TV, but immediately I was thinking about how that behavior applies to the Internet and seeing clips, just short clips from the news on that go viral or whatever, and how everything is so malleable and people can really just look at what you want to look. And that's it. You can be very selective with what views you want to consume and what stories you want to be fed

So it just baffles me that how that's there having no information, no history, not even doing these history. You're looking into it and just buying into the media, the news, because the title of the news station or whatever, it must be true, right? And they're not saying this, so that can't be true, right? And then you look a little foolish because there's a whole backstory. But we don't do the work, right?

And then that popped up like the news, because I used to get it, because I was raised off the news. Like every morning, my grandma, my dad was up with coffee. Four, five in the morning, another coffee, news is on. And that's what I did every time I got up to school, to world news is on, right?

It's interesting how growing up, I thought the news channels just told the news, but it wasn't until I got older that these news channels actually have political leanings towards certain size of the political spectrum. So this news channel is bad. That news channel is good. This news channel is boring, right? And this news channel is good. News started to change, right? It wasn't just some robotic voice talking about the weather and what happened in politics and what happened in sports

But for me, I see from my experience, people really relying on these sources and people still do watch the news and those things and do media, because some people just refuse to believe anything. But like here in California, there's a law that's going to be passable that they signed off on about fact finding. And they have these people that are basically put in place to swarm the internet to control it and decide if what you said they liked or not
