A growing number of people are avoiding news
- Hokusai 6y ago> The increase in news avoidance follows a Brexit-related increase in avoidance the UK that we reported last year. Disengaged citizens is bad news for democracy. We need to keep engaged and informed. My strategy is to read well established newspapers that count with first class writers. And to read a variety of topics even when there is a very prominent one (Brexit, Pandemic, ...). Good writers are always a pleasure to read. I do not watch TV news as usually music and sound create an unwelcome feeling of urgency.
