The idea of trusting the media to different extents based on political views is interesting to me. Like you said, most people follow news outlets that agree with their political views, so it is safe to say that everyone trusts the media to some extent. That being said, with our current political climate it is a good idea to be wary of stories coming from any news outlet (no matter how "trustworthy") and make sure to do research so you understand the whole story.
That's a really interesting point that you make! It's quite true that people tend to follow and thus find credible news outlets that agree with their political views, but if a credible news outlet does not agree with their political views, they might find it to be illegitimate.
it is trustworthy only incase if the news outlet is not biased !!!!! everyone has his/her opinion but i think incase of news if you are representing the truth without involvement of any small coterie so only then we can believe such info
Which news outlets do you believe lack bias?
