How the Media Uses Politics, Social Issues, and Market Volatility Against Us.

In this episode, Steve and Travis discuss the impact of the media on our perception of current events and how it can influence our financial decisions. They highlight the framing techniques used by the media to shape our understanding of issues and the biases that can be present. They also provide examples of how the media has portrayed presidential candidates in the past and the negative tone often used in news coverage. The hosts emphasize the importance of being aware of these influences and taking a rational approach to financial decision-making.
