should not influence our daily lives.
we don't need politics to tell us the rules.
we've seen so much corruption over so many years.

we are led to believe a lot of things when we should do our own research.
we don't have to live like yo yos going up and down depending on the good news or bad.
temptations look pretty and they remain deceiving. 

we each should take responsibility for our situations.
it takes time to get out of a difficult situation and we can take the steps.

[ktheodos]

Agreed!

I find so much of the news is biased against  Trump, They are so liberal and won't report  any of the good  news items but tend to  just report on  what ever is happnig with the people of color. Rarely  what is going on in the real world . Sometimes i just want to reach in and shake the heck out of someone who imposing their views on us and not even very good. Like the news people all think they know what is good for all of us even when they are wrong.

I really don't watch the news, unless I want to hear the weather and see updates on traffic.

[beatsdrop]

I've stopped watching the news like I did in the past. Too mentally taxing.

[o2bnocn]

I don't watch the news for these reasons!

[mrisha]

Watching and listening to news is really there for sensationalism.  They give the people what they want to hear, but a lot of people think of it as being literal.  They never once think that the news and social media could be wrong.

i try not to watch more than the weather on the news --so much negative stuff these days ! i wish they would do more feel good stories to help build people up !

[JaniceSW]

I can only watch so much national news.  It becomes either emotionally draining after a bit or just plain aggrievating.  Each channel has their slant and bias.  It becomes apparent really soon!

[makeblessed]

These days the news can be exhausting, with all of the political talk, but we all have a choice we can always turn off or watch something else, I think as it gets closer to the elections we will only see more.

It's really funny how they'll spend 2 weeks on a "scandal" but won't spend 5 minutes of a "feel good" story.  It's also funny how they hammer some politicians on certain stances but give a pass to others.

I think we can blame it on the liberalization of colleges. The graduates rarely know real history, civics, how to focus on their career and prepare for a lifetime of hard work to climb the ladder, but instead focus on political correctness, how to be afraid of everything they were never taught, and colleges definitely don't teach REAL journalism today. They teach how to lie, how to stretch the truth, and how to scandalize/tear down someone if they don't conform to their views.

You are 100% correct!!!  Thanks for sharing that!!!

[alaskakaren]

I do not watch news local or national. I feel better not hearing and thinking about those things. I get a little bit on yahoo front page...but not much.

[minioncookies]

Agreed anyway politics only leads us down the wrong road if we follow . Way to much mud slinging to take either of the current front runors for preeident seriously. Its like watching to two year old's having a fight but the big difference is two , two your year olds are cute doing that not two adults who act like there two

[lguzman1]

That is so true. I don't believe lot of the things that I hear in the news.
