@thomasfuchs You don't remember when news used to actually be about significant events of local, national or world importance? Rather than just bait for a 24-hour cycle most of which is redundant? Why won't "news" publications change? If the financial structure that incentivizes this toxicity changes, the news will change, too. Telling people to be uninformed isn't the answer, and neither is telling yourself "nothing can be done" (ie "I absolve myself of doing anything"). @minorusaba
