I think everyone usually see /hear news. But sometimes don’t you feel like if you don’t hear news you will be less stressful . Just thinking, I can read books but everyday news is depressing especially CNN or bbc . If you hear local news it’s another story.
Re: News

Re: News
i do not watch news on tv…i read online news paper…if there is some news worthy of watching on tv…i watch it…
otherwise my tv is fully dedicated for playing SAB tv or south indian movies dubbed in hindi…
Re: News
Sab tv is a comedy channel ? Tarik Mehta ka ulta chashma:)
Re: News

Re: News

Re: News
I watch news every night. 8-9 pm. And every day I promise myself I won’t watch it tomorrow. But then something comes up the next day and I catch myself making the same promise again.
But tbh my stress level touches rooftops after I’m done watching - most of the time. sigh
Re: News
I spoke with a furniture vendor in Lahore a few days after that attack on Kamra Air Base happened. When the topic came up he had not even heard about it. He said: “Naa main akhbaar laita hoon, naa main TV daikhta hoon, naa main Radio sunta hoon. Wo to paise dai ke pareshaani khareedne waali baat hai. Na main news sunta hoon, naa main un ke baare main pareshaan hota hoon.” Very interesting thought.
Re: News
I don’t watch news on TV. I avoid reading about Pakistani politics, too much stupidity.
Aside from that, I read any news or op-ed that’s interesting.
About the news being stressing, reading about the economy doing poorly is depressing
Re: News
Interesting but don’t you think if we don’t read news , we will be escaping from realities of life. You cannot be happy person all the time.
Re: News
in this day N age, no one can escape the from hearing bad news. no one can shield himself/herself from the bombardment of news 24/7.
Re: News
That furniture guy does. He surrounds himself with people who think along the same lines so they just don’t discuss current affairs. The only news he gets are the ones he hears from customers (like myself).

Re: News
I can’t just pick up the paper, read the news as if I’m reading a story book and then go on with my day. The depressing stuff really makes me annoyed/angry. Heck even too much of politics forums on GS make me lose it a bit. Sometimes ignorance is bliss.
