Background: As journalism became more influential so politicians battled to control it. Journalism nowadays is about power. Power over information, Holding power to account or providing propaganda. It claimed to make and break careers, swing elections and even start wars. Algorithms created by tech giants, shape the flow of news as people like or retweet. The fact and opinions that want to share. That’s means an explosion of content, much of it false,furious and fractious. So Young people are trapped in the echo chamber and confused about what to trust, Uncertain what is true

Research Questions: - How might we browse and consume objective news online? - How do we choose the ideological news we want to watch? - How might we know if we’re browsing ideologically-spun news?
