This is unfortunately every issue in American discourse now though - the media obfuscates and confuses, instead of illuminating and hopefully educating. The media is the biggest cause of conflict in the US system now, because it's just become hyper-partisans shouting at each other and otherizing the other 50%.
I don't think anything disturbs me more than the effects of American public discourse. It's gotten impossible to have reasonable conversations on most things.
