The media works against God's purpose by making us more insular.
The distance created by news reporting in particular causes us to harden our hearts.
We don't see those on the screen as real people.
On occasion the media will deliberately dehumanize particular people or groups, sometimes demonizing them, in order to discredit their views.
This is done particularly to welfare recipients and asylum seekers.
Sometimes it is done to minority groups, such as gays and lesbians, in order to create moral ease for a national majority.
All of this works against God's purpose, which is to develop loving and compassionate hearts.
This, combined with Satanic influences in entertainment, works to keep people from the development which is the purpose of life.
So we should always care.
We should always see people as fellow human beings.
We should always show love and understanding even to the least - the deadbeats, the losers, those who life has lest behind.
If we overcome our fear we will always show love.
