It's not hard for me. I have a very low fear of missing out. I do end up consuming news, but always either through some sort of filter or directly (rarely), but realizing the role of entertainment in whatever I am watching. I use Twitter a lot, but I follow people who mostly don't replicate the news. I try to follow people that say interesting things. I read Hacker News a lot, but there is the explicitly idea to not replicate mainstream news here, so another good filter. I use Whatsapp a lot, but I am only in groups with friends and family, so another source of news, but filtered by people I care about. Maybe luckily, or even by my influence, these few groups are not just spamming news to me. I am not against the news, I don't particularly "hate" the news. I do inform myself through podcasts, a few that talk about books for example, so it is another filter to consume the news.
