Quit all superficial social Media and News

Jackal

Lister
News focuses on the worst things that are happening in the world which makes us think things are more bad than it really is. And social media makes people compare themselves to others and we never really see anything of how people's lives really are, we only see ideal pictures where they pose usually. What we need is to be grateful for what we have, we don't need to compare our lives to others.

listening and watching "news" programs for too long a period of time, we actually get a distorted view of life. News programs today have one goal: to shock or sadden. The most shocking and horrific stories around the nation are searched for and found. I experienced this firsthand when I worked for a daily newspaper. I saw how panicked the news desk got if there were no bad stories that day. I watched as they searched through the stories to see if a news item could be gruesome enough to save the front page.There is nothing wrong with this. It's not immoral or unethical. It feeds the public's hunger for bad news. It's exactly what people want, so, in a way, it is a service. But it reaches its most damaging proportions when the average news follower/consumer believes that all this bad news is a true and fair reflection of what's happening in the world. It's not. It is deliberately selected to spice up the broadcast and keep people glued. It is designed to horrify, because horrified people are a riveted audience and advertisers like it that way. The media have also found ways to extend the stories that are truly horrible, so that we don't hear them just once. If a plane goes down, we can listen all week long as investigators pick through the wreckage and family members weep before the microphones. A week later, playing the last words of the pilots found in the black box, on the air, extends the story further. In the meantime, while we are glued to our news stations, air safety is better than ever before. Literally millions of planes are taking off and landing without incident
