Many experts see the media as biased and more like infotainment. In fact, many people have turned to social networks as an outlet for news instead of CBS, NBC, FOX, CNN and other news stations. Do you see this as an issue? Do you see the news as biased or unbiased? Should there be more restrictions on the news stations?
In addition to answering the discussion post question, consider the following for discussion:
How significant of a role does social media (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, YouTube, etc) play in shaping your political socialization? Is it more or less influential than traditional media (Cable news, broadcast television, radio, etc)? How big of a responsibility do social media companies have to ensure dialogue and debate is open and free from bias or censorship of ideas
