This isn't about a particular news story, this is about the media. I wouldn't reccomend reading past page 20. Its super quick, funny reading. A comic book, actually.

Basicly it breaks down how we recieve news each day, and how we never ever recieve the full picture. This may ring the bell of "conspiracy" but its about as factual as I've seen.

Anyway, take a look,

Yeah, it has a great message. This is why it's important to use multiple sources. I'd reccomend people try looking at global news from british websites or sources (since it'll be in english), or other countries (translated of course). I haven't done it yet myself, but I think it would serve as a pretty interesting comparison.
