Question: In order to be well-informed, a person must get information from many different news resources.
I believe that if we want to be well informed we should stick to multiple news resources.
Firsly, a news agent may have bias towards a news story. For example, if you want to know everthing about a teriest attack that has just happened in some country, we might want to read the news from that country along with news from the region you thinks the attack was coming from because when a country is going through something as tough as a terriest attack the jounalists from that contry may not think straight that their work may contain personal feelings that could misdirect the readers.
Secondly, the quality of news agent we have today varies greatly. For insatance, in my hometown they have news products from cheap tabloits to expansive journals. The reliability differs for each product and expensive journals usually offers a higher accuracy of the information. In order for us to get a compelete look of a story we should consider both the cheap resources and the expansive ones since either one of them could have left out information that the other party could comlement.
Thirdly, the people who writers the news may not all be very objective. As we all know, news piece are usually by one author and it is not guarenteed that the author can be objective. In other word, there is a chance that this author were not doing a good enough job. To reduce the possibility that we read the fause information or analyzation we should gather information from a wide range of sources. We should in the end be confident about the acurracy of our information and makes the judgement for ourselves.
In conclustion, it is nessesary for us to obtain information from a vriety of sources if we want to be truly informed because the information we get from on source could contain bias, undesirable accuracy level and wrong analyzations. |
