The Fragility of Truth: Media, Bias, and Misinformation

from Bearing A Burden: Finding Balance in a World of Extremes · host Nova James

Truth has always been fragile, but in today’s world of media spin, social platforms, and endless algorithms, it feels more breakable than ever. In this episode of the Bearing a Burden podcast, Nova unpacks how bias shapes what we see, how misinformation spreads faster than facts, and what it costs us as a society, as individuals, and in our closest relationships. From the role of journalism and technology to the personal responsibility we all carry, this conversation wrestles with a hard question: do we actually want truth or just validation of what we already believe?
