There’s a pattern to news which is usually:
1. War
2. Crime
3. Sports
4. Politics
5. Problems, problems & more problems.
If you already are surrounded by tons of problems in your life & things you’ve to sort out, why you want to bring more problems & negativity in life by watching news.
And that’s the reason I stopped giving much importance to news.
I do ensure to stay updated. Though, I don’t actively watch news like most household have habit to watch prime time or breaking news.
Any significant news finds it ways to reach out to me.
The shelf life of most of the breaking news these days is few minutes to few hours. Then there’s another breaking news & people get intoxicated with another news forgetting the earlier one. And the cycle continues.
Here’s a quick test for you:
Do you exactly remember any significant breaking news which happened last October? If you’re like most people, the chances are won’t.
That’s how most news are. You won’t care about them a year later.
I rest my case.
