We are told information is power — but what if the information itself has become the infection?

In this episode of Internal Affairs of the Mind, as a former law enforcement officer and truth-seeker, I look to discuss how the modern media machine - from cable news to social media feeds - is hijacking our hope, shaping our perception, and monetizing our fear.

This is more than a rant about fake news.

It’s a challenging introspection at how we’ve traded truth for traction, headlines for healing, and discernment for a dopamine fix.

I will share a firsthand story from my time on the job when the “breaking news” on TV wasn’t breaking at all, and how that moment and many others, revealed a much deeper and concerning truth:

We’re not being informed anymore.

We’re being infected.

In this episode, we’ll discuss:

• How outrage has become an economy

• Why chaos sells

• How misinformation spreads faster than facts

• Why protecting your peace is a form of rebellion

This is a wake-up call, not to disconnect from the world, but to reconnect with truth, faith, and clarity.

Because if we don’t control what we consume, we become what we consume.
