Why people watch the news

I feel that most people in the United States who watch the news on a regular basis would much rather hear there side of the story. They are quick to dismiss the other side, they dont even wanna hear it. Because so many people watch the news so they can feel good about things, people aren't learning as much. They too often don't know what is actually going on, although they might like to think they do. People who are more on the right tend to watch news that is on the right. People on the left will watch news on the left. It wouldn't be a terrible thing if someone on one side watched to see what was being said on the other side.

  1. This is definitely true but I think with the internet people are more and more able to see both sides. I, personally, have links to both "types" of news and read them regularly.
