This is going to become a huge problem in the future - People read the news they want to hear.

I tend to use Google News for my online news (and the "Smart News" app on my cell and tablet). I've noticed Google News has a new category called "Suggested for you". Anything about Bernie, Hillary, Ferrari, M$ Surface, WWII, and the 49ers tends to appear here.

My point is.... When I was a kid my parents got the local paper, which generally speaking was unbiased. Now we have news channels which are completely slanted towards one side, and news sites that are dedicated towards one side.

If you are reading news that is slanted to one side or the other, you aren't reading news at all. You are reading opinions. If are you going to certain websites to get news, you might be getting less of "news" and more of opinions.
