Saturday, President Obama delivered the commencement address at the University of Michigan in front of an estimated 92,000 people. In his speech, the president addressed a subject close to our heart, the media. "Today's twenty-four seven echo chamber amplifies the most inflammatory soundbites louder and faster than ever before. It has also, however, given us unprecedented choice. Whereas most of America used to get their news from the same three networks over dinner or a few influential papers on Sunday morning, we now have the option to get our information from any number of blogs or websites or cable news shows."
Will the President take his own advice and listen to opposing views once and a while!
