8. The OP contains a valid perspective itself, doesn't it?

It contains many truths that other perspectives overlook or dismiss. And yes, those perspectives are quite different and far better covered in the mass and social media, By no means do these perspectives come from full open minds. And, on a rare occasion, there are perspectives that are equally or more legitimate than the present one. But those perspectives are not necessarily unbiased either, and they get drowned in the noise too.

No matter the bias, facts remain facts. You either have them or you don't. When facts are not presented, they get lost. When perceived facts get successfully challenged, they cease to be facts, bias or no bias.

There are perspectives that shut the facts out with incendiary rhetoric. And then, there are perspectives that bring those facts back to light. I would rather look at the facts, not perspectives.
