lizzybuffy200811 – No News is Good News Day: From where to you get most of your news? Do you find the daily onslaught of usually pretty bad news overwhelming? Do you take, or have you taken, breaks from news – essentially avoiding all news as much as possible?
I get most of my news from CNN and Washington Post's websites as well as from Twitter. I find the daily onslaught of bad news that isn't actually bad news exhausting, while things that are bad or have the potential to be bad are ignored. The false equivalence and sensationalism that is present in main stream media is frightening and is contributing to the downfall of democracy by normalizing what the GOP is trying to do to the US.
