Visit AllSides every day, where we clearly label content and provide media bias ratings, so you know exactly what you’re getting. But remember — the best way to spot bias is to think for yourself.
Thinking for yourself is something I have always done especially when it comes to media and social media
News: What happened. Analysis: What happened and why — writer considers facts and draws conclusions. Opinion: What I think about what happened.
This is something I didn't know before coming into this class. We're taught as people to take what the media gives out but not how to analyze an see if it's fact or opinion.
The purpose of news is to inform, educate, and give us understanding and knowledge of what is going on in the world. It helps us to keep up to date with issues so we are in the know and fully aware of events taking place.
