"News" is propaganda designed to influence people to think a particular way and much of it is baseless, that's why terms like "fake news" exist. People believe what they are fed and corporations and governments are happy to feed people their thoughts and opinions; social media platforms do it as do the general media. Some like to unplug from it, myself for instance, and some embrace it. I'd rather have my own thoughts and opinions independent from those influences.

I do agree that fake news exist, and that a lot of powerful people twist the news for their benefit. It is just a matter of being knowledgeable enough to find the truth.
Yes, knowledgeable, but billions are not and so they simply follow like the sheep; one of the reasons society is in such strife.
