My attitude towards life in and for Germany will therefore never be the same as it once was. (But I must admit, I was also quite naive...)

One of my naive assumptions was to hope for so-called “plurality of opinion” within the media landscape: what one viewpoint considers too far left is balanced out by another on the right, and I can essentially interpolate the middle and thus the truth.

Getting multiple perspectives is good and important, but it is by no means a stable foundation and therefore not a viable basis for the goal of being “properly” informed.
