Thanks to the development of communication technologies, nowadays people can gain massive amounts of information in a short period of time. A variety of different new sources have created on TV, the Internet and social media. Since news plays a crucial part in our daily life, it is important to choose them wisely. In my point of view, it will be better to read news provided by people with different perspective.
First of all, receiving information from a variety of sources reveals the truth more accurately. Since different news resources give a wide range of perspectives, it gives us a whole picture of an event. While gathering information about political or economic news, it is especially important to pay attention to news from different medias. For example, recent research shows that around forty percent of political news are biased because they include too much personal opinions rather than facts. Moreover, the biased news reports are often purposely designed to mislead the general public to vote for specific political parties.
Secondly, gaining information from different sources expands one’s horizon. Since perspective is the way individuals see the world, which is shaped by experiences, value and the assumption they bring into the situation, reading news from perspectives give us meaningful opportunities to reflect the blind spots we have. Take my own experience for example, I was used to read technology news from one single company. One day, I accidentally saw a sociology magazine which introduces some development of technology in sociology fields. It wasn’t until that day did I realize there can be a strong connection between social science and computer science. This interesting experience reminds me the importance of expanding my horizon by reading various kinds of materials.
Finally, reading news from different sources improve our abilities to digest information from different view point. Generally, people find it difficult to accept different opinions because stepping out of their comfort zone can be painstaking. However, it is crucially important to learn to organize statements from different points of view because it makes us learn how to respect other’s opinions.
In conclusion, I strongly believe that gathering news from different sources is important. This is because it gives us meaningful opportunities to better connecting the world, and it also broadens our horizon. Furthermore, reading different information help us learn to respect to others and sharpens our mind.
