Balance Your Brain: Countering Confirmation Bias in the Digital Age
Monday, October 24 at 11am-12:15pm via Zoom

Have you considered how your confirmation bias reinforces your existing beliefs? How can it trap you in an echo chamber and prevent you from considering other evidence and points of view? What about confirmation bias of media producers -- news reporters, bloggers, social media influencers, and other user-generated content? How does their confirmation bias affect the news and information we read, watch and listen to in the digital culture? Join us for a discussion about what we can do to counter confirmation bias.

​This session will be facilitated by Jessi Hollis McCarthy, First Amendment Educational Content Manager, Freedom Forum Institute.
