I envy your optimism :: Reader comments at Daniel Pipes

Submitted by stanley b (United States), Mar 14, 2013 at 17:42

I wish I shared your vision of the future where the oblivious public slowly become more aware. Unfortunately the current set up foments more and more partisanship and skewed thinking. Reading the news is now an ideological choice, where you go for your news determines your world view.

I see that polarizing trend increasing, not lessening.
