“The best way to read the news is to not read the news”

- Most news is designed for outrage
- Daily events don't affect your life
- Mental health improves without constant negativity
- Important stuff reaches you anyway
Disagree
- Staying informed is civic responsibility
- Ignorance doesn't equal bliss long-term
- Can't participate in democracy uninformed
- Curate sources better, don't quit entirely
