Sort of a sexy catch-phrase. Is scarcely any used and certainly non-deserving of any standalone article.

I intensely wished for a redirect target but failed to find any. Efforts in that direction will be immensely appreciated:-)

I also question the motive of the creator, in light of this thread and the second sentence of the article, as it currently stands. ∯WBG^converse 15:02, 25 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Probably Echo chamber (media). (Also, FWIW, divining motive is not a valid deletion rationale, and is at the very best needlessly distracting.) GMG ^talk 18:55, 25 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
GreenMeansGo, thanks, for the target. Also, FWIW, you can probably expect that I have a fair knowledge of what a valid deletion rationale is.Furthermore, in light of the thread linked-to, I disagree that my comment is any divining, (though mileage may vary) and article creations on dubious grounds of likely POV-pushing is worthy enough to be mentioned over here.∯WBG^converse 19:06, 25 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Take it or leave it however you like. Don't make any difference to me. GMG ^talk 19:21, 25 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Other possible redirects: Filter bubble (AKA Ideological bubble), Folie à deux (AKA shared psychosis), Shared delusional disorder (proposed merge with Folie à deux), and cult. StrayBolt (talk) 23:14, 25 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
In Talk:Echo chamber (media)#Split between Media and Ideological?, I proposed splitting the article based on "Media echo chamber deals with transmitting and seems tied to 24-hour news cycle, news vacuum, news as a business, press release journalism,…. Ideological echo chamber deals with receiving and seems tied to confirmation bias, filter bubble, Selective exposure theory, Blinders,…." and a third aspect, "For propaganda, which might appear like an echo chamber, it would include Party line, Manufacturing Consent, motd, Company Way,...."

Redirect to Filter bubble. Robert McClenon (talk) 22:57, 29 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Delete - A phrase pulled from a quote in a single source. Doing a search of my own does not return sufficient coverage to merit WP:GNG. It's not clear to me that this is a term with a consistent meaning, and could be used to relate to a range of subjects. Given that, I'm advocating for deletion rather than redirecting. — Rhododendrites ^talk \\ 05:23, 8 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per Rhododendrites. If it's a near coin-flip to choose where to redirect it to, redirection isn't the answer. Ifnord (talk) 22:42, 8 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Comment-It's a definite delete from me. Agree with Iford and Rhododendrites.∯WBG^converse 09:19, 9 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete or redirect to Filter bubble, as per McClenon. --1l2l3k (talk) 20:25, 9 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
