Today is Saturday, November 18th.

America's political divide has been growing in recent decades,

and it's gotten to a point where people aren't just disagreeing with each other.

They also dislike each other.

Whether it's family members who can't see eye to eye at the

Thanksgiving dinner table or harsh comments on social media. Our guest today

has done the research and found we all carry biases that may contribute to

polarization.

Dan Stone is a behavioral economics expert

and associate professor at Bowdoin College.

In his book, Undue Hate, he explores why Americans are so politically

divided and explains the biases that keep us so fractured.

Today he'll share some of those misleading even false assumptions and offer possible solutions

from the dinner table to the White House. Welcome, welcome to the Newsworthy Special Edition Saturday,

when we sit down with a different expert or celebrity every Saturday

to talk about something in the news.

Don't forget to tune in every Monday through Friday for our

regular episodes where we provide all the days news in 10 minutes. I'm Erica Mandy

it's now time for today's special edition Saturday.
