Agree or disagree: In order to be well-informed, a person must get information from many different news sources.

To get information about events which occur every day around us we must choose a valid source. However, it is not easy because we cannot determine which sources are really valid. Thus, to prevent confusing and misleading it is better to get information from various sources. In addition, every source disperses specific information; therefore, we need to use different sources to achieve our required news.

Today, finding an impartial news source is not an easy job. Even if a media provides some news objectively it is possible it add some personal attitudes to other news. Thus, to get news on which we can trust we should use different sources. For example, to know about what is really behind conflict over Iranian nuclear program, we should search in both Iranian and western media or even some disinterest sources. Thus, we can compare Iranian leaders’ opinion to western leaders’ opinion about this political controversy, and get an opportunity to interpret it in a more reliable way. Also, we can use some unbiased sources to be sure what we inferred from this news is approximately true.

Furthermore, it is not true that every news company express all of news. Some presses only publish sport events in details while other may only publish political news. Also, there are some newspapers which publish only local news. For example, if I want to know more about a movie, I will visit IMDB site. It ranks movies and explain about them. Hence, to know about variety of news we are required to search different sources.

Some people may believe that getting information from variety of sources need spending a lot of time. Although it is a right belief, if we need to access accurate news we don’t have any other way except using various sources. Sometimes it is vital for a person to know about a specific event precisely. Therefore, he must spend his time to achieve it.

In conclusion, if we need to be sure about validity of our news we should not limit ourselves to a specific source. Instead, we can use various presses. Also, to get news about many different topics we must use different sources which cover what we need to know.
