America Needs Unbiased News

We the People deserve information not opinions.

Nobody is unbiased anymore, not people, not news outlets, not politifact, not even google. Every search engine, news outlet, and website has control over what information we see and don't see. Personally that makes me nervous because I feel like I'm not getting true information. For example, the auto fill on google assumes what you're going to search and gives you ideas before you even get to look at the information.

When you search "Presidential Debate" on google the first page brings up articles and resources from debates.org, uspresidentialelectionnews.com, washingotn post, CNN, New York Times, LA Times, NBC news, ABC news, New Yorker, and The Atlantic. So if you take a look at the chart below:


You'll notice that of all the sources included in the chart they all fall on the more liberal side of the spectrum. So I continue through the pages to find anything from the other side and on page 5 fox news finally appeared, but was followed soon after with the Huffington post.

Now I do not personally want to start an argument of which side is better but I feel that if someone is going to look information of the presidential debate they should have equal opportunity of finding news from both conservative and liberal news sources.

So here is why I feel we should have unbiased news:

News should be factual I really don't understand why journalists take their own spin on news because they really should just be stating facts and giving information.

All outlets should be equally represented through search engines I believe that this sets future generations up for leaning a particular way when they should be free from bias before having to make these choices. I learned to use google well before I was deciding my political party of choice.

Lastly, it taints the political process When deciding how to vote the American people deserve equal opportunity for both sides, which would be possible if regular facts were stated instead of opinionated people stating their opinion on different events that happen.

I would be against this regardless of which bias it was towards. The American people shouldn't have to specifically search for a certain type of information to access regular unbiased information but that's how society is and we as American's deserve better.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
