Why? I read a newspaper to garner facts, correct my misapprehensions
and receive ideas that I haven't already had on my own, and not to
bolster my prejudices. I should have thought that anyone fit to vote
would do the same - but perhaps I am unique in that view :-)

Actually, I am not. Some philosophers have made similar comments,
including some I strongly disagree with on most matters.
