I'm assuming you mean like current events news? I don't. If something important happens, I'll probably find out through osmosis. I'm stressed enough by things I can't control, why would I willingly subject myself to something that I know makes me stressed/depressed? Same reason I mute all notifications and only check them once/twice a day. If there's real emergency I'm going to get a call.
Not that I don't read any news, I just don't follow it, and try to avoid that type of news. I follow sites/blogs about things that interest me (arts, tech, science) and regarding political/philosophical stuff I read books. Sometimes I might be curious about some event (current or historical), in which case I'll go to look for the information I want to know from several different sources or if it's far back enough to have some books about it, get a book or two. For current news this is usually more than a few days after the event so info is also more accurate.
