do you have time to keep up with all the news?
There are the top stories of the day.
And yet, there are many other news stories as well......it seems like there are too many to read.

There is way more news articles than I can keep up with each day.  I try to check out the headlines a few times a day and then investigate the stories that I find more interesting.
Have a wonderful day!

With 24 hour news there is way more news than almost anyone can keep up with but I try to catch up with the news on TV in the evenings, also for a short while in the mornings.  I read my local paper online in the morning too.

I look at the local head lines and have a couple of news sources I follow on facebook (about all I use it for) so I get those head lines.  I click the ones that I think are interesting or something I need to know.

I like keeping up with the local news and everything that's happening around the world.  It's fascinating to me and I'm able to be neutral so the negative stuff doesn't pull me down.

 :heart:

Have a great day!

I try to keep up with the news, although I agree that sometimes there are just too many stories to really be well informed about. When there is a political element to the story, I also try to dig down to the base facts and then form my own opinions about that; all too often it seems like people that rehash those stories often just repeat what they heard from some political pundit instead of truly understanding the ramifications.

Sometimes even when you dont wanna hear the bad news you cant avoid it.I get the Daily News delivered and enjoy reading it right before i retire.I enjoy the sports section,the comics and the jumble.I do read the news and hear what others have to say on it but when i come across a real sad or gory story i skip it!!

Sometimes there are sad stories with happy endings or justice being served.Those i tend to enjoy reading as well.

Not all the news, but usually the headlines; since we can get new almost anytime of the day if I miss something I just switch to another channel or go on the internet.

Real news is not found on the boob tube nor in newspapers these days - they only tell you what they want you to know so those are not reliable sources to go to - just ignore them and do your own research for the real news.

I listen to NPR on the way to/from work.  I have an hour drive each way.
