News vs. Noise

This phrase came to mind, yesterday, while watching the latest Ellie Dreams Down Under YouTube video. In it, Ellie was discussing how even news sources are triggering tribal reactions from their followers, in order to keep their viewers from going anywhere else for their news. MSNBC are 75% to the Left of the political divide, while FOX News are 75% on the Right. Neither side is extreme, but both are keeping the two sides apart. Somewhere in the middle is the truth.

The following cartoon probably says it all.

Hmm.
