I mean the title doesn’t help. You might even call it click bait. I think the “everyone should read the news” culture that Aaron describes is a straw man. Most people I know who read the news regularly know that it’s partially entertainment for them and that you can get your info from places other than the daily news. Only people like Donald Trump think that being informed means watching cable news all day. Maybe I just haven’t met any of these people who think that books are bad but daily news headlines are good.
