Yes, I think so. People search for information that rationalizes the beliefs they want to continue to hold. and there are information providers available to serve those needs.

Search behavior in this environment leads to a lot of belief polarization. If you get in an argument, what do you do? Go to google and search for what you believe and voila, in the information rich world, and you will find evidence for what you wish to continue to believe.

But are you justified in that belief?

*BTW, I don't think this the only dynamic behind our beliefs.
