In this episode of Signal & Noise, we take a close look at polarization—examining how media narratives, selective reporting, and even algorithms can intensify differences and shape public opinion. We’ll discuss the psychological and social forces that drive polarization and offer insights into how media literacy can help us bridge divides. Join us to understand the forces behind polarization and learn practical ways to navigate a media landscape that often fuels division.
