Bias exists in all media, we must simply consume media critically with the relevant biases in mind

If i may ask - what does “consume media critically” mean?
How is the process description for that? I’m genuinely interested. I see the word “critical thinking” thrown around a lot but it was never explained to me even in the slightest bit. What does it entail?

When you read with an awareness of the source and the larger context in which it was written, and you’re trying to actively decide what to believe based on what can be substantiated, that is at least a part of reading critically.
It’s not taught well in schools, and most people nowadays are simply reading headlines and reacting based on their gut feeling. Such people are easily swayed for the worse, but difficult to help.
