How To Watch TV News

John Whitehead of the Rutherford Institute details, How to Watch TV News on his website. It is a helpful primer, referencing Neil Postman much of the time.

John speaks of the filters we need that are more nuanced than the typical "Left" and "Right." His advice will comfort and bother both Liberals and Conservatives, both of whom feel the news is biased against their particular worldview.

A fantastic article Rick. Thanks for posting it.

I really loathe TV news. John Whitehead's "how to" is something any serious minded news viewer needs to read.
