Up First from NPR - When News Broke

Just a few decades ago most people used — and trusted — the same news sources. Now, Americans are siloed in separate ecosystems, consuming conflicting depictions of reality. Misinformation runs rampant. Conspiracy theories flourish. And extremism grows.

And how that crack widened and widened, until we split into separate worlds.

To hear more check out "Engines of Outrage", a mini-series from the Landslide podcast, distributed by NPR.
