“Long-running internecine media feuds, emblematic of the degradation of mass media as they are, are merely the smoke set off by the burning desire for one, all-consuming narrative….The only story we need to get straight is the story that really matters. Grounded in that story, the greatest ever told, we can deepen our understanding of ourselves and our world. Mass and social media can provide us with information that can aid our understanding, but we should never uncritically accept or believe the stories by which they relay that information.” - Acton
