Poland's News sources [59]
but sadly like me not empowered to make any kind of difference like millions of others
Yes. Online news is simply binary data on the web; it's how it's used and by/for whom that makes the difference.
We can all do our bit; and have to. I think you've had a varied life and career that's valuable to society and has shown you things that most people never see; as have I. This is important, otherwise people just end up like the two nomarks above, ranting lowest common denominator 'politics' that they don't quite believe but like the idea of without understanding anything outside their own constrained lives.
This is relevant to the thread topic since such people are fed by what they read online. A news source needs to be credible and not pushing contemptible views to the gullible and mentally unhealthy.
And with online news, it's almost as if every opinion carries equal weight. Pre-internet, something needed merit (either intellectual or sensational) to be worth the printing costs. Poland has no dearth of online news, however as with any user-generated content, a very large pinch of salt is needed.
its only a construct to keep you occupied/ distracted.
It works very well sometimes, as we see from the drivel here. Nevertheless, Poland does still have some quality news sources; at least it does when yo've sifted through all the slush.
