Things they say on TV are almost as warped as, if not entirely, the same way things on the Internet are. Yes, trying to learn and understand the news from an unbiased source is important; yes, voting is important. Despite this, not everyone can keep up with the news or donate to charity. That doesn't necessarily make them self-centered, it just means they're looking after their health. There's a difference, especially since someone's mental health effects all of the people around them.

But will it make you healthier if you receive all your information from hoax e-mails?
I had to stop seeing people over this. News made them depressed, so they stopped watching it. And all of sudden they are speaking paranoid over the top crap, are scared and sorta out of touch. Which definitelly affects people around them.

I don't need to read the news to know that people are being killed mindlessly by each other or that idiots are gaining power in politics.

So what difference make it, actually following reliable news source?
I am not for "avoiding triggers, including the whole entire world". And I rather focus on the mess outside than roll around in my own unhappiness. It gives one perspective and... not focusing on your problems is sometimes good. Spending too much time in your head is sometimes worse than lifestreaming Al Jazeera 24/7.
