A couple of questions:<p>- Was the negative information concealed by Fox news true or false? (The data was collected pre-2020 and could be reviewed for the outcomes, it's possible Fox concealed some news that was false)<p>- Did CNN conceal positive information that was true? (I searched the report for 'conceal' and did not find reference to whether or not CNN concealed positive information.)<p>Otherwise, it seems self-evident that a partisan media outlet with biased topic selection will lead to biased viewers if those viewers do not also source information from differently-biased outlets.<p>Seems the only defense is to source from multiple biases, cross-reference, and for topics that matter to you, dig for your own data from high-integrity sources.
tl;dr: <a href="https://twitter.com/dbroockman/status/1510607409294692352" rel="nofollow">https://twitter.com/dbroockman/status/1510607409294692352</a><p><i>To understand impacts of partisan media on beliefs & attitudes, we paid regular Fox News viewers to watch CNN instead for ~7 hrs/week for a month. Our results should worry you ...but first, why do this? We have a lot of evidence partisan media effects vote choice (see, e.g., @gregmartinphd's work). But we actually know little about why this might happen. What changes viewers' beliefs, attitudes, or priorities might accompany these shifts in votes?</i>
