1.can consider different perpectives -> objective
one sources ->easy to be unbiased
2. not miss info
Nowadays, people can get any information from numerous sources thanks to advent of the internet and development of media industries. Some people argue that it is better to depend on one source to acquire in-depth information in order to be well-informed. However I strongly suggest you to seek for many different sources if you want to be an wise persons. Because you can consider different perspectives and not miss important information
Above all, people who get many different news sources can think about the issue in several positions. If they rely on only one source, they would be easy to be unbiased. However, because the diffrent styles of conveying details and opinions towards the same event offer people an opportunity to consider many aspects. For example, I subscribe for three newspapers every morning because all of them describe certain issues in different ways. When the United of States required Korea government to send out more armies to Afghanistan, one newspaper conveyd that news in a favor way but the others,articles were likely to show me their negative positions on that requirement. Reading all of them, I could extract the objective information and organize my own perspective.
On top of that, many sources are helpful to get a variety of information. Because a modern society is so complex that people can not get enough information from only one source. If one have several sources, he or she would not miss information which is not addresed in a source. A survey shows that all of CEOs of major companies in Korea subscribe for more than 3 newspapers. They say that a lot of sources are necessary not to fall behind in getting newly information in the competitive societies. Considering they are successful people, even the laypeople should try to get to many sources to get ahead in their societies.
To summerize, one news source is no longer enough to succeed in the continuosly changing world. People can get objective information and unbiased thought through more than one news source. In addition, they give abundant contents to people. For those reasons, you do not have to save your money to get another source. |
