    I can do it it's to depressing for me. You don't get anything useful from the news only worry and stress,so why do people still follow them?

    = (Over) Curiosity? I'll note the Headlines and if anything I feel is 'News worthy' take heed, but it's true 'Media Marketing' tends to Grab the attention for it's own 'Agenda of Choice' although it only does so because, Sensationalism Sells

    i avoid watching, except keeping an ear out for what will really effect me. i read mostly local publications and online feeds. but the news is depressing and stressful and most of it bs anyway. not worth the stress and anxiety.

    One word answer. Information. I watch the news on mute. To avoid the agendas and jabber.

    Then I educate myself on the event or events on my own. Through my own eye.

    Everything involving commentary and coverage on all news organizations channels should be taken with a grain of salt. Get the facts then get the hell out of there.
