Media news

People say they are looking for the truth but whose truth. All humans have built in bias and this effects their view of the truth. This week a man came forth indicating he knew what the truth is and he will strive to promote that truth. Jack Dorsey, CEO of Twitter announced that he was not only blocking Trump but others will follow. He said regarding this blocking, "this is going to be much bigger than just one account, and it's going to go on for much longer than just this day". This is mindful of a statement that was popular in the middle of the last century which said, first they come for the jew, then they come for you. More than half of Americans get their news from four social media sites which were not around 20 years ago. Everyday their audience grows as does their ability to influence the news. This is not just in the United States since these companies have more than 3 billion followers world wide.
