I post an article that I read 'this morning that I thought was interesting about how people tend to seek out the news that reinforces their beliefs. In a follow up post I say that both sides do this. And then you assume I have an agenda, and that since Trump won I suddenly felt the need to insinuate that it is the conservatives that need to reevaluate how they get their news. Amazing leap.

don't try to put people in one box or the other so quickly. They might surprise you.
