Do you ever feel overwhelmed and powerless after watching the news? Does it make you feel sad about the world, without much hope for its future? Take a breath — the world is not as bad as the headlines would have you believe.
In You Are What You Read, campaigner and researcher Jodie Jackson helps us understand how our current twenty-four-hour news cycle is produced, who decides what stories are selected, why the news is mostly negative and what effect this has on us as individuals and as a society.
Combining the latest research from psychology, sociology and the media, she builds a powerful case for including solutions in our news narrative as an antidote to the negativity bias.
You Are What You Read is not just a book, it is a manifesto for a movement: it is not a call for us to ignore the negative but rather a call to not ignore the positive. It asks us to change the way we consume the news and shows us how, through our choices, we have the power to improve our media diet, our mental health and just possibly the world.

    This is because the mind tricks us into thinking that the more we hear about something, the more prevalent it is.

    1. The person or people who see the news happen – they see this event selectively; some things are noticed and some are not.
    2. The reporter who talks to the initial source(s). They decide which facts to pass along, how to shape the story and which parts to emphasise.
    3. The editor, who receives the story and decides to cut, add, change or leave as is.
    4. The aggregated broadcast channels. Some news stories make it to the big screen; completed and submitted by editors, these news stories are now at the mercy of the broadcaster, who decides which ones to show on the national news channel.
    5. If the story goes overseas, further gatekeepers will decide if it is worthy of their time, regardless of whether it is broadcast or print.
