How do we balance it, does social media news affect you in anyway? Let's discuss
Balancing it is not necessary because it would eliminate the initial purpose of social media. The only possible way to balance the positive and negative aspects of social media is by enforcing restrictions. Attempts to restrict social media is an attempt to deprive freedom of speech and expression which go against principles of democracy. Korea for instance where media is restricted and only broadcast what the government is interested in and keep the negative ones hidden doesn't make things balance. Their practice is one sided and doesn't alloww the citizens to enjoy the privilege of social media. Imo, social media should be allowed to operate fully and you are allowed to believe whatever you choose to believe from what you are seeing in the media.
