Surround yourself with people who share your beliefs
Challenge your beliefs, and change your mind based on evidence
How does confirmation bias affect the interpretation of information in the media?
Confirmation bias has no impact on the interpretation of information in the media.
Confirmation bias only affects the interpretation of information in personal conversations, not in the media.
