Totally agree. However, in my opinion, alongside an independent press, a critical and informed citizenry is crucial for a real and effective democracy. Even major media producers may introduce biases (even unintentionally) and only by consulting diverse sources you can extract the truth and make up your own mind. It is your responsibility as a committed member of the society to always keep your guard up, analyse and quarantine the information which is too much close to your own ideas or beliefs.
