Comment on Catholic media bias and it’s effects on priests, nuns, and lay Catholics. Some sites that we can discuss include Life Site News, Church Militant, America Magazine, NCR, etc.

I am convinced that in the internet age, one social media post has the potential of misleading thousands of Catholics! Let me know your thoughts?

It leads lay people to think more highly of their abilities and opinions than they ought to. To accusing the Popes and clerics, disrespecting them, and thinking of their interpretation of Church teaching as correct. In addition, it creates general hatred and distracts from holiness, leads to sins that make the Spirit flee.

It already does mislead thousands and maybe millions of them, with all the false teachers writing and working for these media companies, and many trusting them. Other than news from your diocese, news about canonizations, teaching from the Pope, not much is worth keeping up with, if even those few things. God will let you know what you need to know if it will help with your salvation or help you participate in the salvation of another.

This is where we need critical thinking skills. Read a few versions, look at all sides, ask what did the person actually say.
 
Find the news source that matches your worldview, no matter where it stands.

I love The World Over on EWTN, LifeSite News (they’re the #1 pro-life website in the world), National Catholic Register, 1P5 and The Remnant. I know most people either aren’t familiar with them or don’t like them but they give a comprehensive Catholic view and are completely orthodox.
 
Are you talking about anti-catholic bias or misinformed Catholics saying dumb stuff?
 
I don’t read those sites because my main language isn’t english. I assume those are orthodox catholic sites. If yes , i wanna remind that almost 100 % of news outlet and agencies through the world have a globalist leftist bias, and even worse, an agenda. Targeting the only ones that speak AGAINST such system, even with their mistakes and shortcomings, seems completely mad

That is hard to believe because if the leftist agenda were really that pervasive, it would be far more successful than it is.
 
All media is biased. Heck, if you go to the bias checker site, it says the least biased sites are socialist and atheist websites, which, are by definition, biased.

@LeafByNiggle

Please explain how it is not successful. I would not say 100%, but 85%-90%.

Thank you for the list of conservative resources. Many I have never heard of.

But that doesn’t answer my question. How has the liberal media not been successful? They have had a dominant role in the news media since at least the 1960’s.
Hollywood is dominated by the liberal bias and has been influencing society and culture for decades. Telelvision, movies, journalism has all been dominated by liberal bias. How has that not been successful?

What is “dominant?” 51%? Probably true. So? Right-wing media is much more successful now that it was in the 1960’s, so if anything, the trend has been toward right-wing media.

Dominant means they dominate, they have a bigger exposure.

The trend is still towards the liberal media having the dominant role.

The trend might be to Americans waking up to the fact that they might not be getting the facts or the truth ftom the liberal media though.
 
Abortion, divorce lgbt,transgender are all liberal dogma propergated and encouraged by the leftist media. We are on the fast road to perdition and only by turning back to God will it be stopped. Stopping differing points of view are not only wrong, they injure the collective good.
 
Used to view all of the media. Then, some of the media. Now, none of the media.

I am happier, pray more and gossip/detract/calumniate less.

Really, who needs to know about (and stress over) something over which they have no control? If it is truly important, i.e. needs prayer, we will eventually hear about it anyway.
 
I dont consider lifesite and I have anything in common as Catholics.
