I used to listen to a lot of talk radio. About ten years ago or so I stopped. After growing up some and looking at some of the other information out there, I realized that a lot of what I was listening to was highly slanted to the right and a lot of it was just not accurate. The most egregious issues were the things they said about Democrat and liberal political motivations, and the idea that the "liberals" were all on the same page about what they wanted and how they wanted to get it. In fact most of talk radio seemed to be dedicated to the idea that liberals were the enemy that needed to be defeated.f.a.s.t. wrote:My other sources are from talk radio that is the best source of real news, I'm not going to waste my time going onto their websites to provide their sources. The facts speak for themselves, everything I post is true. In addition, it's hard to provide sources when the biased and hate filled hearts and minds that run google have algorithms and shadow blocking that block anything in favor of my positions.
What I realized was the Democrats and liberals are motivated by the same human motivations that the Republicans and conservatives are. Mostly they want good government, healthy families, and financial security. Throw in the few bad apples that want power for power's sake, which are present on both sides.
Bottom line is that I don't think talk radio is a very good source of news. And I've seen no evidence that google has any bias in its search results, btw. I often use google to check on things that get posted here by Trump supporters, and believe me there's no shortage of results that come up from the crazy conspiracy theory part of the right wing. I also regularly see Fox news articles in the google news feed, and Fox is the right-wing's main stream media.
