Old acid hauler but not too caustic
"Hate Inc." by Matt Taibbi. Although he hates Trump and gives the Democrats passes on their current wretched behavior, e.g. uncivility to a person eating at a restaurant, by the 4th chapter one can see that the media is the primary cause of current political dissent as so many people watch, hear and read its output (for lack of a more descriptive term). It's all about the money. Conflict sells soap, papers, tv time, whatever. Facts sell little or nothing. The book will confirm your not listening to or watching all networks and print media.
