It is quite hard if want to have a weekly overview of what happened in the world, besides some traditional weekly print titles with online versions. Daily is much easier and still much better than real time. I stopped reading "news" at around 2011, from being a news junkie before. Including news about tech, music, movies, books, etc. Now I have the general mentality that either: - If something is really important enough for me to care, it will reach me eventually in some way or the other. - There is absolutely no reason to immediately start reading up after events like terror attacks, air plane crashes etc. For the first days it is pretty much pure speculation and hearsay. If I'm interested what happened, I will take a mental note to read up about it two weeks later when actual information starts becoming available. So basically I don't keep myself updated on general news anymore. I investigate specific topics. Ironically I changed my habits, while working at a big news site, which was part of the reason for doing so.
