The important part is that whatever side of the political spectrum one is on, for him/her to get a variety. There is bias on both sides of the media, and in order to make sense out of all the confusion, one must hear both sides of the issues. This is why the media figure I perhaps have the most respect for is Chris Wallace (he hosted the third Presidential Debate), who is a Democrat who works at Fox News. That way he hears both sides of everything, the liberal from his beliefs and sources, and the conservative from his workplace. This allowed him to run a fair, and unbiased debate, because he was able to ask from points of view held by opposite sides of the spectrum. The other important thing is awareness. News should rarely be taken as fact to be left unquestioned, it should be analyzed and run through one’s own mind for him/her to see if it makes sense, or is perhaps biased.
Personally, I read the Wall Street Journal every day, Apple News and Flipboard for variety, and Fox News and Drudge Report for casual getting the news.
