Description
Recorded March 19 2024   Description   In this Frankly, Nate reflects on ten dichotomies that he sees prevalent in our current culture of information consumption and media.  We are increasingly bombarded with news from traditional media outlets as well as emerging smaller platforms.

What should individuals keep in mind as we navigate biases and underlying intentions surrounding journalism and educational content? Are we able to set aside our internalized perspectives of the world and listen to what is being said - rather than leaning into what our identities want us to hear?   To Watch on Youtube: https://youtu.be/ZRQ3g36ZtWo   For Show Notes and More: https://www.thegreatsimplification.com/frankly-original/57-information-bifurcation
