Markets have reviewers who are trusted to help filter through this in things as simple as videogames. I would say that things far more important, like politics, also benefit from this also. |
Much better, then, to get your news from a Sean Hannity or a Rachel Maddow or a Reason because then you know exactly where they're coming from and to take it with a metric fuckton of salt. The more information you consume and the more varied the sources, the easier it is to find the incongruities and thus the truth.
