There's almost nothing you can do about it unless you go offline altogether and revert to a barter economy.
After 100 years of being manipulated by right-wing Newspaper millionaires we're all suddenly horrified that we may be being manipulated by the Internet.
Wise up. Choose a variety of news sources. The Internet provides a democracy of news information that we never had before.
Example. Syria. UK press make Assad the Enemy #1 but why? We don't care about Syrian Children. We're happy to watch them drown in the Med.
Maybe it's all about illegal Israeli Oil.

Of course it's about Oil. It's always about Oil. Assad is a twat but no more of a twat than the Saudi Sheiks.
Just assume you're being lied to by the mass media. Do your own research, stop buying the Daily Mail and Google a variety of news sources. What you find may shock you. It's about Oil.
