 20 April 19 Hate Broadcasting or Education News
What is the purpose of reading news? Why do we? Is it so that we may be instructed by those who publish or broadcast the news to hate, to fear? Or is it because we choose to educate ourselves?
If being well informed is important, how important is it that the well of information remain untainted?
Help us with a little support if you can.
