 The danger with online personalised news services is that they could become our sole window to the world.
The concept of personalised news isn't really new -- every news source is personalised by the editors and reporters who produce it. Most people tend to gravitate towards news sources which cater to both their interests and their bias. You can certainly see the different political leanings in Australia's major newspapers and radio stations. Sometimes the bias is less subtle than others, but even so if you read a major newspaper from cover to cover you'll still get a reasonably broad view of what's happening in the world.

Mitt Romney, Lies and The Mormon Church 2/3 | Nomadic Politics | Nomadic Politics | Scoop.it
In Part One, we traced the strange origins of the Mitt Romney's Mormon faith and asked if the entire religion was a hoax perpetrated on 19th century victims. Let’s begin part two with what would seem at first glance to be a question with an obvious answer.
Is lying acceptable to the present-Day Mormon Church?
This is perhaps a more essential question since, no matter how it may have begun, the true value of any religion lies in what it has become and what it teaches its followers. And as far I can tell, no religion officially accepts the practice of lying. (Even Satanists are probably supposed to be truthful to one another, I'd imagine.)
