Blog#2 The information I consume.

 1.Assosiated Press 2.ABC world news 3.PBS NewsHour      These are my go-to because I don't notice bias within them, I can get information without it "siding" with one political view or agenda. I consider them very reliable because I can get information not only from where I live or within my bubble but around the world. They do not push an opinion on me. I am very concerned with what media people watch and consume considering it can make them believe something that isn't true in the slightest. I notice it even within my family especially when I see people getting all of their information off bias websites that just feed you what you want to hear. I learned how to fact check websites in my WR 121 class so now I am able to see what is and is not reliable or factual. I also discuss with the people around me and in my family on what they have learned and where they have gotten their information so that I can compare and contrast.
