What do you read?

I like this quote by Miami Herald columnist Leonard Pitts:

In recent years, we've seen more people abandon mainstream news outlets, choosing instead those fringe outlets that reliably validate a preferred world view. Nowadays, people want their opinions echoed, not questioned.

...

... Some of us still believe that in the search for truth, you have to be even more skeptical when dealing with things you're predisposed to believe.
