   @evan au contraire: we should *avoid* news.

   As Rolf Dolbelli so eloquently explains in his "Stop Reading the News: A Manifesto for a Happier, Calmer and Wiser Life". https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/48581422-stop-reading-the-news

   «news focuses mainly on exceptional events. It doesn't help you to fundamentally to understand the world. And it makes you cynical and anxious»

   I have been following this advice for two years. And it's made me calmer *and* better informed. Not about "Kardashians" but about stuff that matters to me.
