@joe1888 Information/news that contradicts, and therefore challenges, what “they” believe is true.
I can make up example sentences that may help clarify the meaning.
“She tends to avoid facts that run counter to her belief system.” (She ignores information that doesn’t match her views)
“My friend told me stuff (information) about the government that runs counter to what I’ve always thought.” (My friend told me facts about the government that don’t align with what I believed about them before)
