Media bias and polarization are destroying us. News, social media and search results have become so narrowly filtered, biased and personalized that we are becoming less informed and less tolerant of different people and ideas. AllSides frees people from filter bubbles so they can better understand the world — and each other. AllSides.com provides balanced news and media bias ratings, exposing people to information and ideas from all sides of the political spectrum. Our media bias ratings use a patented system to reveal the average judgement of Americans. Our civil dialogue programs help people and students to build relationships with people who are different from them.

Social media networks, which often foster partisan antagonism, may also offer a solution to reducing political polarization, according to new findings published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences from University of Pennsylvania professor Damon Centola and a team of colleagues.

NOTE FROM TED: TEDx events are independently organized by volunteers. The guidelines we give TEDx organizers are described in more detail here: http://storage.ted.com/tedx/manuals/tedx_content_guidelines.pdf A critical factor behind the political polarization troubling the country is the lack of dialogue between people with opposing views; research from behavioral science has explanations for this conversational reluctance and what can be done to help correct it. Jake’s talk focuses on two key components to it. The first half addresses the reasons people with opposing views are generally unwilling to talk to one another and the second half focuses on how to bridge the gap between people with opposing views to have a productive dialogue. Jake Teeny is an assistant professor of marketing at the Kellogg School of Management. His research focuses on the psychology of persuasion and understanding why and how people engage in it. More about his work as well as his ongoing blog on how to use psychological science to enhance everyday life can be found at EverydayPsych.com. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx

2 opposing perspectives and 6 true facts about Canada’s policy on Medical assistance in dying (MAID).

Since then, the country has been embroiled in a legal and ethical debate about where to draw the line on who qualifies for one. In the US states where it's legal, that line is drawn at a terminal diagnosis with 6 months to live. On the other end of the spectrum, countries like Belgium, Luxembourg, and the Netherlands allow anyone suffering from a serious condition to qualify, so long as they’ve exhausted treatments available to them. After a series of court cases, Canada has landed somewhere closer to where the Benelux countries are: there is no terminal diagnosis requirement, and next year, people whose only serious condition is a mental illness will qualify for an assisted death. While the Canadian public appears to show large support for the policy change, there are vocal minorities who believe that it is dangerous. Many in the disability rights community believe that making a disability an eligible condition for assisted death is discriminatory. Some psychiatrists and mental health practitioners are concerned about when you can decide a mental illness is eligible — and that it could hinder the work of suicide prevention. This is the debate we present here. Dr. Stefanie Green is a practitioner of medically assisted dying (MAID) in British Columbia and is the co-founder and president of the Canadian Association of MAID Assessors and Providers (CAMAP). She also wrote a book about her work as a MAID practitioner, called This is Assisted Dying. She argues that Canada’s policies have been successful and have been extremely meaningful for her patients. Dr. John Maher is a psychiatrist based in Ontario who leads an Assertive Community Treatment group and is the editor-in-chief of the Journal of Ethics in Mental Health. He argues that there aren’t enough safeguards in place in Canada and that offering the option of euthanasia to people with mental health will undermine the suicide prevention work he does. In Vox Video’s take on a debate, we asked both participants to identify facts that their opponent would have to concede are true. They were given an opportunity to review each other’s facts in advance and, in a video call, agreed on a set of six. In the video, you’ll see those facts presented, with each participant given the opportunity to add a “footnote” to their opponent’s facts. We added four additional rounds to our format to give our participants more time to flesh out their viewpoints. Here's a document that has all of the sources we used for each fact: https://docs.google.com/document/d/e/2PACX-1vRuMU81aB8NSr9Aub5vH7Q_ytg657CWecth30_KGoZIQVdb3ANNqFrSOjd4esTAgYcC2kj8U6nlSXEx/pub Vox is an explanatory newsroom on a mission to help everyone understand our weird, wonderful, complicated world, so that we can all help shape it.
