Not when the news is on.

I make a point today to not read the Internet news more than once a day, in fact with the news in general I limit my exposure as much as possible, this is not down to some desire to live shut off from the world but more from a desire to maintain my sanity.
The New York Times says "All the news that's fit to print"now all news is available to us, what does this slogan mean? Perhaps that is why its readership is dwindling.
Hence the reduction in my news reading, no news, is good news, an expression which has gotten truer over time in this world.

As the Stone Temple Pilots say.

I can Feel when she kisses me sleeping
But not when the news is on.

I was going to go on about power structures new world order etc.
Instead could you please just read Manufacturing Consent by Chomsky, he writes about it with more
ability than me.
