The media is NOT evil. It’s just a business.

And businesses run on of money. And in order for a giant media businesses to stay giant, they need to produce content that people will give their attention to.

And human beings are primed to give attention mostly to jarring content.

We can see the proof of this now in social media, which runs off algorithms. Obviously an algorithm has no “evil” intent, yet it shows us the worst of the worst and the most conversational media - why? Because human beings are primed to give attention to jarring content.

So if CNN or Fox News stepped down or changed their content to the stuff you guys all think they SHOULD be showing, they would no longer be the giants and another media business will take the power.

We see the crap because WE inherently look for it.
